Light of the Beginning

Light of the Beginning

“My soul had already brimmed with sunsets…”

-Juan Ramon Jimenez

 

Light of the beginning

touched the mountains;

touched the houses;

fell from the heavens

like a rush of water

to break into the crystal sea;

entered under the earth

where jewels lie sleeping;

switched on their brilliant sheen;

swept away the darkness

with the force of tornadoes.

This light you filled me;

I became your diamond.

Lainie Senechal
