                                            Is   it   a   feeling-   a   chance   uncultured;
                                                        Unseen?
                                             Is   it   the   gift   an   aged   hand   gives,
                                          The   gift   a   heart   of   knowing   procures?
                                         Is   it   lent   by   munificence   of   circumstance,
                                                Or   by   morbid   transience?
                                             The   tryst   with   one's   softer   light
                                     That   bleeds   colour   to   a   world   already   beauteous,
                                                 Thrives   in   truths   untold,
                                                 In   adventures   unraveled,
                                            In   mirrors   that   behold   themselves
                                        And   in   other   such   realms   of   consciousness.
                                Employed   to   many   offices,   but   borne   out   of   humane   earth,
                                             Tis   a   lovely   confluence   indeed.
                                     Perhaps   a   chance   uncultured,   but   not   untreasured.
                                            Unseen   maybe,   but   scarce   unfelt.
