I lie beneath the stars and moon
Await the sun, the morning dew
And breathe a tranquil midnight air
In wonderment of what’s up there
Beyond what these eyes can see
There must be a never-ending sea
Without walled-in horizons,
Without horizons of any kind
Filled with heart and minds
Bottomless as the deepest pit
Darker than a moonless midnight
Brighter than summer’s brilliant sun.
And the dewdrop that rests
Upon this breast
Reflects it all.

To see it
Is to accept
Its reality.
