Light that lights all lights

Line of Inquiry:
 “we look for that light eternal  
that does not come and go 
the screen upon which life plays 
cognised in staid stillness slow” - Unseeking Seeker



Let there be light
And the light was called day
And the darkness was night.
And the Lord showed the way 
On this screen called the Earth
Where our destiny lay
Heralding the birth
Of all that we know
Of sorrow and mirth
Of swiftness or slow
all of creation. 
Reflecting the glow.   
Eternal illumination.
