6. Fermat's Principle - Light takes the path that requires the least time when traveling from one point to another. the thin shadow, trembling against the earth the scent of a clinging leaf, crackling like the last autumn wind – against the spirit seeking hope in the melancholic drifting so that I only see, just beyond the forest’s needs relishing the breath of an unhurried moon seeking her shelter in the stars who’re all strewn like diamonds, floating on the everlasting pelting out songs – enchanting the twilight pressing out words that mean more when they’re heard by the midnight cool, where light grasps the truth remembering the summer and all its fun remembering the caress of yesterday’s sun remembering… taking the path of least resistance breath of a prayer – light beyond compare the wonder of knowing He is always there and, whatever I say – His grace will always save this is the gift He gave… as His light plays out its game giving each believer a new name so when we reach heaven, we’re not all the same it is the sea of light, the insight that I claim because He took the blame I can lay down all my shame IT IS HIS LOVE I SHALL EXCLAIM!!!
