Speak Yourself Open Like the Sky

Nothing is worth saving
until you polish it into transparency. The clarity becomes your vision. What you refine in the fire of spirit remains a truth worth becoming. Light seeks a gem but also your gems seek the light. Your poetry is not only words but also the light of your life revealing itself. Then you are a brilliancy and a treasury of light. Speak yourself open like the sky. Look deep into the words you use and polish them in the depth of your silence. It is the translucence of words that manifests truth and that is the jewel you must seek to be as you shape the facets of your poem's appearance.
