by this light held slowly<\/p>\n
the universe opens up to the heart of all that is<\/p>\n
in the soft hands of darkness<\/p>\n
waiting for dancing to stop<\/p>\n
so the fullness of this moment can be realised<\/p>\n
for those who have forgotten that<\/p>\n
when we slow down the songs of crickets<\/p>\n
they sound like opera<\/p>\n
and when we hold the light of fireflies<\/p>\n
they show us the universe.<\/p>\n
