his perfect sight revealed
what human veil concealed.
He spoke commanding,
the blind to see, the lame to walk,

The cold and crispy air,
the sternness of the sky
silhouettes of trees, tall, bare
like winds are passing by.
March comes in to spread
a new awakening vibration,
intense at first, like color red,
then pure, white, without temptation.

Silver light upon my path,

cobwebs of confusion swayed,

Why the burden?
Looking back as if in vision,
