- Look Above
copyright ©1995 by Stephen Craig
The quiet sun turns slowly
in the shadowed veils
of the still, drifting horizons.
in time following
the paths drawn by Aries
down into the peaceful darkness
of another night.
The air is thin and clear
holding its slow breath
for the brief moment
of the passage of a thousand stars.
The land has faded
in the dark sleeping of the sun
leaving only this silent dark sea
and the stars.
Look above!
look above and loose
yourself to the stars.
Cast your soul across the sky
and listen, listen softly.
In your being you can hear the stars.
Spread the wings of your soul
across the sky,
and soon it will be the stars
that dwell in you.
Look above, and below.
The land and the still dark sea
are sleeping at your feet.
Look above!
breathe softly,
and think of me.
