This other self
This product of a bold move
This calculated price of Sacrifice
A vast pool of reflection
Changing colors with the sky
Shifting shape with the tide
Replenished only by the tears
Warmed by the radiant joy
Crafted by the internal fire
Burning brightly today…
But ‘tis not so
When the Spring dries up
As hubris gulps it down
Drowning in envy
Drowning the fire
When busyness takes all
All the love
All the tears
All the everything
That is given
Thus, let us cry
For the child, for the elder
For those who suffer
And, The Light
Oh let us feel the light
Let us bathe and dance in it
And build the fire once more
For it blazes brightly in us
For the given
And the Giver
