Poetry list
Beyond reason
Lines written with one eye (my surgeon loves music) & inspired by Emily Dickinson
All matter lives when spirit sings
Amidst the atoms teem
The spinning ball aglows with love
Which reason cannot seem
The heart of all is not afar
Upon a distant shore
But set within our mundane span
Where less is more and more
This mystery lights a flickering world
Beyond our grasp and reach
A gift for all yet never owned
The music of love’s speech
