Newly Imagined Light

Newly Imagined Light

My neighbor’s first cornstalk has begun its rebirth into a gold leaf artifact fluttering against a fence.
People are out and about
on perfect days, enjoying the cool breezes of this unfolding Fall.
The last three months have broken heat records, while Autumn has become a symbol of a tolerable life.
Our consciousness just declared to emerge from another dimension,
a revelation of what we all knew as truth, has been verified by the science minds, might just newly open tethered minds.
Now we're turning the pages of our lives with new introspection,
perhaps now we may connect with insight to God's delight!
Oh! How the Torah seems to subtly shift meaning as our lives
grow through the times.
This holy day, the head of a new year, we pray to be written in the next book of life.
Apples and honey waft the table that we've set, becoming a symbol of the birth of a sweet New Year.
Wishful anticipation, fluffy white clouds, untarnished by what we've lived and lost, rise to a new moon that's in the night.
Rebirth is in the sky as little asterisk stars that shine!
