An Ode to Light

On the International Year of Light: 2015.

The aura of enlightenment, the spirit of victory and the joy of beauty convene to celebrate the antecedent of all things positive. 

O Light, Thou shall be the Master!

From the cradle laid on wild heavens,
Acumen spread athwart the cosmos,
Crucifying murk, christening shadows,
The spartan dances to a jingle fast.

O Light, Thou shall be the Master!

Cajoling folks to race behind.
The silent alchemy of distant stars,
Fleeting sunsets,lanterns,lamps
And a multitude of imposing impressions.

O Light, Thou shall be the Master!

The superlative heuristic wisdom,
The vision of venturing the unknown,
The aristocrat of modern Science,
The morale of the populace.

O Light, Thou shall be the Master!
