Notes About The Poem

The Spark of Life

(“The Nature of Light”, 2018, original encaustic)

The Spark of Life

The spark of life exists
Whether self aware or not
Embodying Life in all life

This is the hint in the eye
That peers back 
Meeting and reflecting 

What it is that is 
Unconditioned within
All conditioning

Dear James, deep and bright is the spark of life, and too, what one reads between the lines of your splendid verse. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
