When your eyes pause on the ball |
|
That hangs on the third branch from the star, |
|
You remember why it is dark |
|
And why it gets light again. |
|
The Earth, like the heart, slopes in it's seat |
|
And, like that, it travels along an elliptical path |
|
Drawn into the darkness. |
|
An unpolished pearl |
|
In sky-black |
|
Palm of hand |
|
Flickering sun-flame. |
|
And then you remember |
|
That you, yourself, you are a light-bearer, a light-bearer |
|
Receiving radiance from others |
|
Flickering sun-flame. |
|
Unpolished |
|
Earth in palm of hand. |
|
And then you remember |
|
That you, yourself, you are a light-bearer, a light-bearer |
|
Receiving radiance from others |
|
Flickering sun-flame. |
