Being
By Gerard Traub
The spark that illuminates the sun
ignites every fire and flame
in silence it dreams to beckon us
to enter its heart and domain.
A compulsion from our light within
never to be quelled
the thread behind our human form
and mind that steers each cell.
No man’s measure could contain
this drop that carries oceans
a song no choir could embrace
one breath to set all in motion.
Driving seed to greater ascent
the force anchoring flesh and flower
a journey beyond and unto itself
dancing across shapeless hours.
Holding us to our fated path
through worlds before this world began
in silence it dreams to beckon us
to enter its heart and domain.
