Arrow In the Sun

In the dark of the night in dim flickering of candlelight working carefully on the shaft of the arrow to take flight smoothing it of all error to ease the travel of its flight with a point to pierce the night from the darkness towards light taking ribbon clean and pure forming words with care there fixing to the shafts end words to fly into the light before the rise of morning sun going forth in the night taking bow and the shaft with the words to take flight from the stars guidance take learning where to take my aim where it first will begin the dawning of the new day waiting there within the dark finding peace with all that is becoming one with the task to perform at first light taking stave and the string bending and fitting together them fitting arrow to the string turning now towards the east raising the bow with the sun pulling back and taking aim becoming a one with the shot loose the shaft into the light loose the words into new day going forth before me flying up into the light traveling to where I will not be shaft of arrow in the light flying into the day that dawns before me light of day where I will not be lowering bow and closing eyes wondering if it may be somewhere within the new day that my words may be found on shaft of wood with ribbon tied words upon there wrote shot into the morning light turning now I walk away going back into the night where the dark will me take being not in the day
