Dance of Shadows and Light

Dance of Shadows and Light

have you seen the moon
struggling up there
with the clouds
so many are there
unendingly.. and yet..
can you resist those fleeting glimpses
full of smiles..
can you help falling in love..
can you resist the pride and joy
reflected so pervasively,
as you bask in that ethereal glow..
mesmerized.. unable to contain.. to hold..
when the 'ache' merges shimmeringly in this
dance of shadows and light..
as 'divinity' softly enters your heart
bathed in a magical hush..

yes the need is there
to hold
this 'tiny' miracle
that glows in your eyes
that settles in your heart
that makes you forget
everything
as involuntarily you stretch
out your palm
as if to hold
something
beyond.. way beyond..
and it smiles
reflectively
as you shake your head in wonder
at this irresistible bond
that pulls you despite
all comprehension.........

~ Madeira ~

Dedication : "This one's specially for Jag.. a really wonderful friend
and human being who cajoles us all into reaching for the moon"
