It is harder
To find the light
While the light
Clings to them all
Clings to me
Clings to my mind
Clings to my heart
I reach down, deep
Pull back the sand
To reveal beauty
Unimaginable
Until I looked through a lens
Clicked the shutter
And took the latent image home
To explore the possibilities
Leaves submerged
Under tangled reflections
On a night lit fantastic
The tree, is real
The leaves have fallen from it
Rain has flooded the forest floor
Until one day thought I
Perhaps the dark is just unknown
In need of light
And wanting an explorer
But I am learning
To see beauty
In all that I can see
All I need
Is to open my eyes
Remembering
That by “eyes”
I mean heart
