inner light

TO GLOW

Like light in the sun
spilling out of the sun,
the spirit within
beams its way
through all our cracks
till our most treasured
walls come down.

The coming down
of those walls is the
blessing we crave
and resist.

The coming down of
those wallsβ€” so the light
of the soul like the light
of the sun can help
the world growβ€” this is
the call of calls.*

~ Mark Nepo
