Love Poem: Why Cannot We See

Why Cannot We See

Why cannot we see

The sun will shine brighter when…
     
     we appreciate shadows as a generous reflection of truth
          embrace the dazzling display of rainbow’s complement
               contest burning skins on the muck heap of humanity


The night will emerge peacefully when…
    
     we reflect upon rays of hope as a loving absorption of verity
          reach out to eminent exposition of darkness’ tutelage
               caress ambiguous sheathing beyond the rubbish of greed
