Light Show

light-show-on-the-land

Light escapes —
streams under clouds,
glows on fields,
etches the small blue patches
with silver

Light infuses lives,
each of them,
bursts through the edges of sorrow,
overrides disappointment,
finally settles everything
into the gentle peace
of sunset,

Softening into evening,
preparing to emerge,
bright as mind,
bright as stars,
to shine through the whole night.
