Morning Reservation
Everything seems to fit
into this morning's
vast mosaic as if each
piece has been shaped
to occupy a given place.

Hidden in plain sightThe seemingly motionless vastness of space,
at times teases, revealing pores in its skin,
through which we see flickers of light as God’s grace,

Such are divine secrets, hidden in plain...

FARDistant starlit place
Flying parsecs away
In outer space

A blinking light
Night and day

Squint to SeeA portrait of a perfect house with flaken gold .
An image by a renaissance man
talant without a family.
The inevitable imagination creates a story
yet it could never picture a home, merely a tale.
The shiny roof that...

Who am IThe first thing we see is invisible space
and in fact we all are contained within it,
which holds us intimately in close embrace,
revealing its secrets to us bit by bit.
