All light fell

“Taiga”

Before you
I knew
All light fell from heaven
So it came as no surprise
When luminous love
Dove enchanted
Landed
Unsnowing
The blanket of feathered white
That held this heart down
Revealing fears as mysteries
Lifting these silent histories
In starry, starry flight
My mind recalling pieces
Of the wonder
I’d once called
Home

Unlisted

“Taiga”

Why do I write? Perhaps in order not to go mad. Or, on the contrary, to touch the bottom of my madness. - E. Wiesel
