tricked by the light and blinded by the truth

recalling epiphanies

 

 

insignificant moments that turn

into brilliant epiphanies:

I recall such one from years ago.

one moment, I was galumphing along

in my frumpy Easy Spirit sneakers,

and in the flash of a shooting star,

the wink of a twinkling eye,

I was transformed,

made to see with eyes that have been closed,

made to hear with ears that have been deaf.

fling open those bolted doors

and let the feelings cascade in.

bathe in that purity of feeling,

luxuriate in that realness,

look around at newly revealed landscape.

Places deep within that have been closed

and shuttered

and ignored

for many years

are suddenly flooded with light.

I remember who I am.

I remember what I love.

 I remember what I want. 

I think there is still time.

I hope so.

There is so much wondrous beauty all around though sadly many never notice, as they engross themselves... IN... themselves !

A creative, awe-inspiring poem indeed !
