Open

 


I want to find that box again

and see if I can open it -
the light that came out
was yellow and orange,
and the warmth of it indescribable

I found it in a small place
tucked deep within  - it was unpretentious,
it had a secret latch
and I opened it almost not on purpose

And the light bathed everything
in its wondrous glow,
and illumined a space so large
that there was room for all of us
to stretch into our true being
and inhabit the full size
of our innocence
and our dominion
and our duty and our power
to heal the earth.
