Mysteries

Here, an imposing cathedral of
unparalleled beauty sheathed in
crystalline grandeur lifts its
imperious grace to the ceiling of the
sky velvet-blue with approaching
dusk, a halo of moon and the
boldness of stars impassively
observing a landscape unlike their
own of frozen gases and ancient
rock. The one below with its
living atmosphere responds to
the distance of its sponsor-star
in a frigid pause of the clamour
of growing things, unlike the
inert nothingness of cold and
distant space. This most familiar
place of time and seasons, liveliness
and curiosity, a highly specialized
experiment by nature in
randomized creative adventure.
And so, her creations look up and
peer beyond the darkness of the
unknown, certain of discovery 
and revelation holding in spiritual
sanctity the faith of guidance and awe.
