Illumination


Illumination — when it comes — is often subtle; 
Easily missed: a patch of light, 
Encountered as we round a corner, 
A gentle stirring in the blood 
When we address a situation—
 Quiet cues that we might miss, 
Had we not been paying attention; 
Had we not worked to overcome the temptation 
 To get lost in our thoughts, 
Or to assume that everything 
We need to feel or know 
Can be touched, or heard, or seen 
Through our five senses…
