Questions




 










 

Three poems for the new year that sum up where I am at the moment. I hope you like them...

Illumination

Feeling my way in the dark,
Sometimes
in split-second light 
I am amazed to find
 Divinity
 there with me.
Then it's dark again.



                                                                                    


                                               Sunbeams

Ideas whisper from my brain
to form word-worlds,
pictures...
Sunbeams that can't be caught
but slide,
moving with the motion of
shadows.
By their light I am shown
a distorted impression
of the shape of things...
They are not mine to grasp.
I can only dance alongside them
and be amazed. 


Questionmark


Here I am,
mass of atoms,
mess of neuroses,
clinging to the slip-slidy curves
of a question mark,
Alone and not alone.
