Shadow

The second
shape of being it
exists attached close
visible or invisible.
It is construct
of frail
light rays and the shadow changes the
original shape as the creator illumines
brightly from place
to place in space
and from point
to point in the
specific span of time.
Living in distant past far
from the diffused light
the formless shadows
melting in deep time
drowns the static life.
Light of gleaming hope
from a future invisible
forms alluring shadows
lengthening with time
carved in contours
of dream float on
reality of present.
God lights from above
the shadow undefined
lasting in absolute time
is absorbed in life divine
takes shape in the present
He constructs for all of us
the destiny
follows
