The Longest Night | Touch the Future

Between the longest night
and dawn of the shortest day
the sun stops in the heavens
One cycle ends
and the world is born again

We think we are this personality
But we are not
this body, species, lifetime
But we are not

The wheel turns
One revolution ends as the other begins
Nothing remains the same
even for an instant

The only thing that is forever is change
and we are that
like music, the universe and what lies beyond

Movement gives us form
and this movement never ends
it simply changes and moves again

Solstice, Rudolf, and Three Kings
come to awaken from our dreamy drama
and for an instant
if we are lucky
we discover who we really are
again

We witness and celebrate
each Solstice Christ-Mass Eve that innocence
but nearly always forget

If we are awake
glancing in our child-lovers eyes
we may remember as they dance
to our one-song
again
Michael
