NIGHT SONG: A nocturnal reverie in honor of Rainer Maria Rilke What produces the night? We should experience this and never fear the dark. There's no need to shudder after the sun melts on the horizon and bats fly against stars. Cool evening breezes seldom sleep, and if you look closely twilight hours are far from stark. Therefore fear not: the deeper the darkness, the more brilliant each spark. ===================================================================================== from Celebrations ah Song: Rejoicing Through Art, Poetry & Narratives with T Newfields SUMMARY: A pictorial poem about consciousness, human potential, and the night.
