A play of words

A play of light

The longest day

The shortest night

Let the madness of the world fall away today

and you and I dance around the sun

Summer’s first morning awakens

like a precious child

a daisy ring

a four-leaf clover of hope

the full familiar fragrance

that I yearn for has arrived

We stand balanced for a moment

at our height our peak

in the sweet stillness of truth

beyond the pendulum of light and dark
