Jayne Eggins Poet Free verse

Unexplained Brilliance

A sudden
 sonoluminescence
 manifested
 in a river of eyes,
 a sigh drawing
 vision 

The spray of their rays
 issued into a void
 barren of illumination,
 its essence devoured
 with the absence
 of brilliance 

Broken skies
 illuminated with scars,
 fragmented earth
 felt the first radiance,
 one burst
 bequeathed life 

Startled orbs
 can now perceive
 with no sight,
 folded forms
 can now move
 like untied kites 

A desolate darkness
 was extinguished,
 with an inexplicable
 sound wave of light
