Longing for LightA Poem by Redolent QuillIs it too much to set love free From the prison of hearts When after seasons of snow Rocks write odes of wild flowers To the wandering warmth of spring Is a crystal more precious Than the songs of roots Than the memories perished And secretly treasured Of humble rustles Of crumbling leaves Is a crystal more bright Than the longing for light Above earth's burning womb
Is it too much to know joy Deserted outside castles of pleasure To free spirits from temples of bargain To caress the mason's wrists To remember the stars That forgot they are us
Let's make them sacred With flowers and incenses Who are smeared in sweat Of toiling for truth Let's worship them instead Who are drunk on our pain Let's melt our walls Let's wing our falls Let's set them free Just let them be In love's infinity © 2011 Redolent Quill |
