Painting with a brush filled with Stars – v2

Filling the cosmos, the heavens,
a canvas of eternity, of infinity,
power in creation, in making,
a design high above the dome,
the living universe beyond us,
the Milky Way, other galaxies,
in the wild, filling infinite space...
 
Painting galaxies, the universe,
creating space with abundance,
precision, effortless beauty,
with a brush filled with stars,
too many to count, to number,
a canvas of eternity, of infinity,
wonders beyond what we can see…

when I speak of the darkness

when I speak of the darkness

when I give voice to the evil

does the evil grow

is it given more power

when I speak of the darkness

when I give voice to the evil

will it come to life

through its revealing
