Light glides instant
on the water
Faster than the waves
that catch its shine
flowing in their elemental course
along their necessary line
So impulse shoots across us
The call to go, to fill a need
We follow, undeterred by what might block us
Water-like, we find our way
This is the new day
Where we, no longer mechanized
No longer herded by our shame
No longer bound
Can rise to claim our right to bless
all that we love
with all we are
In the smooth liquid of this moment
We move
Led by light
Fed by what it gives.
