Effulgence’s Advance (New Poem by Polly Castor)
Clearly, darkness never had a chance
Given blazing effulgence’s habitual advance.
Clearly, darkness never had a chance
Given blazing effulgence’s habitual advance.
Can you see how
This different premise
Brings an improved conclusion
Literally resulting
In universal salvation?
You are valid.
Me being valid too
does not make you less so.
at least
I’m wet,
exerting,
and not only
languishing about
Sending special Easter love and hugs to each and every one of you. Heaping on you all the blessings of the season.
Spring is hiding
underneath there,
somewhere, dormant,
while the clocks change anyway
We’re so glad
you came to be with us!
Here’s to another
great trip
around the sun!
We love you!
Light infuses everything you do…
Light has no mass but it does have momentum…
Visible light takes up only a tiny bit of the spectrum…
Our bed is an antique “full,”
rather old fashioned, high up and hard,
with spindles at the head and foot:
it was his grandmother’s bed
that he slept in years before me.
The longest night
of the year
pivots, turns,
and tends
towards more
expansive light…
Our phones are now cameras and mailboxes, gaming stations and boomboxes, messengers and social platforms, and searchable word wide information, all in one little slim thing.
Notice it, embrace it, express it, get out of the way,
and enjoy being the only real, wonderful you.
I’m grateful for a lot of things:
For Truth, Life, and Love
For family, marriage, and home,
For progress, hope, and fruition,
Stocking up on groceries
for our family to come home,
packing the refrigerator,
full to the gills,
This quest is huge,
unbiased, profound,
and never ending.
Thankfully, by design,
fruition is unfolding
and assured.
All are connected,
although distinct,
woven tightly together
into a unified fabric
full of dependencies
and beauty.
I used to ask if he missed me.
He did not, citing his completeness
independence, and self-sufficiency.
Did you even notice I was gone,
I would fish,
