xiv.

each moment,
reflected across
the lens of
a million, million
shimmering eyes,

is understood
wholly through
experience shared
by each being,
each manifestation

of the divine process,
the unfurling infinite,
fresh as fern fronds
basking in
morning sunlight.

our isolation
is an illusion,
our strength
lies in communion
and understanding;

the web of being
connects us with
the living light of rivers
threading through
this beating cosmos.
