Light Knocks Skyward

Light Knocks Skyward

A Poem by Onoma
"

The life of light.

"
Light knocks skyward...the world opens
unto itself.
One monstrous illumination felled--
despite ourselves we find shadows
outstretched...rationed eclipses to
ground.
The light of the world secreted...
becoming ominous upon thee.
Motioning, as if hailing the soul's 
transport--the living seem untimely.
As an arm raised to the wind to better
feel it, discern direction--a handful of will.
We pull one another from moments...
and in that pulling agree time has
passed.
We wear of a mind of welcome--to make
our way through what's forbidding.
Light knocks skyward...the world opens
unto itself--we were meant to move and
be moved by its embedded cognizance.
Till love has become of us, and the light
of the world we are...undone.
For that which knocks must be answered.

Light is a theme i find endlessly of interest, i like to write about it a lot myself. here you capture something of its beauty although this has sad overtones, the light is inevitable and love needs to find us... without love we are nothing. Liked the different tones in this and i could here the light knocking... quite insistantly:)
