Light Immemorial There are no ends when you live on a sphere There’s only the roadblock of cloudy and clear The skin of a circle has no, beginnings The thrill of the chase is lost in winning We live on a problem that lost the solution The answer is spinning in our revolution We’re marvel and matter, fiction, and fate We are the reverence that wonder creates We are the dots of every lost i Banding at nightfall to darken the sky We cannot light, what isn’t yet dark A soul cannot glow until there’s a spark The essence of truth can only be felt The lashes of lies are those that are dealt The stars are the tombstones of all, that were born Each time that we die a new one is born |

Richy…You cook food for thought. I especially liked this morsel: "We are the reverence that wonder creates" |

I do so love this, a lot of truths to let revolve around in my brain.. "We cannot light, what isn’t yet dark" One of many that I enjoyed. |
