A picture frame of fiery red
takes flight
as if inspired by a sudden
burst of light.
Shadow-dark, a stark and
lonely figure
starts to stir, sensing something
other
drawing near.
A ring of light, a burst of
wings, and
suddenly the angel starts
to sing.
Sweet and sad, its tone resounds,
surrounding and then calming
the
chaotic swell of life becoming
real.
And so they come to sense
each other,
somewhere deep inside; the
dark and light
of life made into being.
A hum, a step,
and colors start to rise
between the
essence of this long-held
separation.
The chasm is shrinking; the
gap growing
smaller - slowly, over eons
of unknowns; as
mystery redeems a state of
utter fascination.
Eye to eye, they sense the
truth at last;
for there within a sense
of growing clarity,
they see themselves anew
in this reflection.
Light met dark, and night
met day.
Love and hate began to play.
There
weren't any rules. While
every sense of
innocence just hung there,
in the balance of it all...
