Astounding Beck and Call

Super-fast the stairway appeared
Taking my breath away
Awe-struck I follow the power
Interested in what it is
Reaching deep inside of me
Wishing I could hold the immensity
And follow the stairway where it goes
Yellow light flows from up above

Taken by its greatest splendor
One rendezvous of love I carry

This lively piece comes before me
Heaven is where it reaches towards
Elastic is its long dynamic

Simple is its path upwards
Timeless is its grandiosity
Astounding is its beck and call
Reaching the outermost layer
Saying it's the greatest of all

Russell Sivey
