Nature's Revelations: God Speaks Through Beauty
Poetry by Gill Schwartz
NIGHT'S EYE
The Eye of Night
opens wide
to the fires of its sight,
and draws me deep inside.
In those flames, I find my love,
her warm flesh and image.
Her hands hold the moon-dove
and dreaming stones of jade.
Then, in a flash, my love is gone.
Leaden clouds seal the sky.
Only pain remains of Vision
and Night's now blind and staring Eye.
