Shadow

Here is a shadow.
Be filled.
What follows?
The sun shines,
the moon shines,
the stars shine.
Open your mouth.
Drink in wonder.
 
What appears?
There are no words
up to the task
of naming.
So stop. Instead
rouse yourself
with silence.
 
Find yourself
straining
heavenwards.
Feet anchored,
lungs filled with sky.
Fix yourself there
with light.
