the most
intelligent
the most
beautiful
things
we can imagine
surround us
we
swim
like blind
fish
among
iridescent
coral
passing through
a world
we neither see
nor understand
in
air
in water
we swim
somnambulant
through
the vibrant
night
Were
we to awake
trees would arise
and offer
their hands
the very air
would breathe
its welcome
the most
intelligent
the most
beautiful
things
we can imagine
are moving
around us
"Brother!"
"Sister!"
they greet us
and
call us
by name.
