“Hummingbird
Flitting, darting
A restless quest
To fuel a fire
That burns your breast
Seeking sweetness
For selfish glee
Bringing gifts
So heedlessly
Your touch a trigger
You fire life
Igniting beauty
In vibrant strife
To equal you
In colors bright
They dazzle, dumbfound
And delight
But in tableau
Their beauty ends
Enlivened only
By the wind
Whilst you with
Generous energy
Prove a lovely
Vibrant Persephone
Their season ends
Those blooms of spring
And hummingbird
On fragile wing
Too soon I fear
You will expire
Sweetness smolders
Consumed in fire.”
Michael Sullivan

“There are no honorable causes. There is no good or evil. Evil is only what we call those who oppose us.”
Michael Sullivan, Nyphron Rising

“That we are both right. One truth doesn't refute another. Truth doesn't lie in the object, but in how we see it.”
Michael Sullivan, Nyphron Rising
