First Flash of Love

First Flash of Love

2025 12 31

From darkness of the swirling sea we rise 
on wings of breath stirred by desire to live 
and stretch our aching body to the skies 
then hide in safe haven of the dream cave 
where we meditate on first flash of love 
that animates our minds with light above. 

We crawl along the diamond river bed, 
grasping at future gifts with hopeful hands 
to realize bright vision in our head 
where we dwell peacefully in fertile lands 
to worship spirit from first flash of love 
that lifts our spirits to Heaven above. 

We slither from assertive lake of fear 
and race through maze of tangled apple trees 
to escape cruel greed of the puppeteer 
by leaping freely with reviving breeze 
to transcend sorrow with first flash of love 
that turns our faces to star-face above. 

With each new turn of Earth in void of light 
we gather in ring of diamonds to sing 
with frantic laughter that dispels mute fright 
while dancing to play demon with one wing 
then wake from terror with first flash of love 
that conjures one-eyed sun god high above. 

Ascending tangled canopy of trees, 
we swing ten thousand miles on curling tails 
to measure mountain rivers to vast seas 
across wasted deserts to fruited vales 
to seek heart treasure from first flash of love 
so we can translate weird spell of the wave. 

Evolving quadrupedal form of life 
four hundred million years of urgent faith, 
we transform fish to god through brutal strife 
till we believe in guidance of the wraith 
to grow in progress with first flash of love 
by building ziggurat from shadow cave. 

Attending hymn that Mother Ishtar sings, 
we dream creation of the universe 
when big bang spirals through galactic rings 
till planets nurture creatures with the force 
to mold our bodies from first flash of love 
so we kneel and pray in cathedral nave. 

As wingless angel questing for the Grail 
we seek salvation through strict discipline 
that channels lustful energy through scale 
from Bacchus to Phoebus when we begin 
to comprehend truth in first flash of love 
that fuels our journey cradle to the grave.

  1. Orpheus guides soul of humanity steps of evolution in pilgrimage to climb Ziggurat of Ur where Ishtar recites song of creation to celebrate the new age of Aquarius.
