To Float With Light
Still, what I want in my life
is to be willing
to be dazzled ~
to cast aside the weight of facts
and maybe even
to float a little
above this difficult world.
I want to believe I am looking
into the white fire of a great mystery.

First of all, I love th photgraph of the lights floating. I see water here often, don't I? In your headers and in many posts. I like the last line of the thought. To look into the white fire.... Great thought. Makes me want to go out and have such an experience, but I know I can't create this, it must find me and just 'happen'.
ReplyDeleteNanka describes a wonderful ceremony. I would love to see that as it were happening.
This was a very nice visit here this morning. So wonderful to speak with you the other day.
Peace
