Living Light by Raymond A. Foss
A meadow aglow In the quiet dusk Sitting on the porch Drawn to the field Mason jar in hand Lid pierced for breath
Chasing the light In the wet grass Damp with dew Captured by the spell Of the moment
Laughing at the wonder Cupping the luminance Between my fingers Feeling the cool warmth Night vision Insect feet on my skin
Collect a few Where did the light go Til they start again Coleman mantles In miniature Casting shadows on the table From the logo and seam
Open the lid Go to bed Empty in morning Loaded with memory As I close my eyes To see the night
