Illumine
Ah, yes.
Here comes
the widening light
of late winter.
Its soft comfort reaches
that which had been,
or at least felt,
stiff and static
with an energy that
brings hope
and promise
and flow.
Sometimes when it
illumines
deep, dark places
there may be a lull
before loosening,
a need
to shade one’s eyes
or even turn away
for time to adjust
to that which stirs.
When it feels right,
one can
appreciate the
dynamic interplay
of shadows and shimmers,
let relief and renewal
unfold as they will,
and come home
to oneself
yet again.
