The Language of Light Light, long and lovely and deep. A reconnaissance of the soul these verdant days, summer psalms bursting from leaves. Light, like an old friend returning. Delicate white caress, a latticework of ease, luminosity beguiling. Light, as gift and grace. The harmony of knowing the dappled drift of dream. Languorous disarming. Light, incandescent, revelatory. This mastery of longing, of listening – is it enough? To stand in the sunlight and be enthralled; to feel the intermittent beauty of it all.
