Open Secret

Fullmoon's fate-forging eye
unlocks from time-to-time divine Truth why
we strive for the infinite, how
big and small, fragile and strong, fast or slow--all now
grasp for stars they'll never meet, wade in mystery
until their last gasp bleeding the need to know, to make history.
Even green leaves weep following rain
yet not from sorrow; they cry because deep inside
they are fire alive, links in a glowing chain
thinking of growing things seen and those that hide,
their scent, feel and power-seeding speech--
infinity within our reach.
There is a spirit in the forest
a heartbeat in open air
mirrored by many an orbiting chorus
repeated day through night everywhere:
life is a musical thought and recurring bell-rung vision
made by the Self-created Whole elated from one soul-stirring decision.
