SHIMMER

I wrote this poem because of what is inside. A Universal Spirit housed in what I hope is a very unique soul wrapped in an Earthly shell that will someday return to dust from which it came. FYI - The poem came to me while I was working on my model sword. Sort of like the Japanese idea that the sword was/is the soul of the swordsman.

Interesting. Enjoy.

SHIMMER
by NATHAN ZEN-SAPIEN

Eyes alert and opened wide hail THE GLEAM;
A GLINT flickering from within.
Radiant and resonating like a firefly in a jar;
like a star on the edge of the night sky.
A soul shimmers within it's Earthen form
