Voice in the Light Down the heavens, thru the clouds, across the winds that churn the night, the velvet darkness pins the sky with stars of a silvern light. At a gallop in the dark, the light rays come, first the fast, then behind come the slow. They both reach the eyes at slight different times and a Twinkle is their impacts aglow. In that blink, some men see their last Hope. In that flash, some men hear their Faith and a dim corner shows my old Courage lost now lit by this messenger of Space. And it seems that the Infinite is speaking to me, Man the infinitely small, that we are both the ends of a cosmic circle not touching but embracing us all and the unmeasured distance between us is the breath of a heartbeat’s sigh winged with a Voice from the velvet darkness locked in the twinkling of an eye. And in the silent and echoless vast uncertain dim of some darkened night when one star blinks and jumps great distance straddled to a cosmic light hurtling the blackness of a million midnights whose span is a chasmed sea, if you listen for the light, in the twinkling of an eye, it will speak to the dark in thee.
