'Mapmakers gather details'

Measurements, records, journals & drawings of those who travel
those who live dangerously untethered from known quantity
exploring land, sea & sky forming places within
by allowing geographic elements to saturate their lives
 
It is written when the traveller starts a journey
their heart takes the shape of a sunstar
A phosphorescent compass ~ lapis solaris
Mapping invisible strength of wind & current
 
Her Sun is a mirror
A transparent liquid metallic globe highlighting the universal sequence
An eye looks through the sun
Maximizing the only view
An ever present now

 
Our sky’s luminous thoughts gaze on an open hearted scene
~ a contextual contrast
Ephemeral as the sweet caressing breath of God
 
It is written the scent of eternité is composed of boronia (a South Sea flower)
lime, Arabic incense, cyprus, spikenard, olive oil,
All the oils which anoint the body of the risen Christ
This perfume traces the soul
A clear gleaming map
unfurled
next to the celestial sea
Ocean salt melted with fervent heat
Creates the thinnest edge of a sky blue looking glass
 
Mapmakers incandescent thoughts move stylus on black wax
Vintage poets dancing words, scrolling pathways
feathers or sharpened points
which side takes ink best
 
Every map a window where a symphony is seen
A tubereuse & mother of pearl inlay blossom
Recounting revelations onto tiny thin gold fruit
Adorning the mapmakers fingertips   
 
It is written the voice of a map is the sound of a shooting star
tesoro, my darling, my silent heaven
when the light shimmers like wings of the morning
on the outermost parts of the sea
divine the hidden treasure
beautifully revealed ~
The kingdom is at hand
 
Mapmakers gather details…
