Elusive

IMG_4400 light crop.jpg

I reach for the light

it pesters

and floats

drifting from hand

it dances

and crawls

escaping from here

it rests

and stills

infusing the heart

it leaps

and collapses

into angry bursts

it sways

and touches

teasing so well

i rest my reach

and light

tumbles

finally

sparkles

settles

down

upon me.
