Transformation

The light and dark of transformation

Transformation

Lying in the grass

Staring at troubled clouds

In clean air

What was has been

But is not separate from what is to come

What is coming

But is not separate from what was

Full of confidence

Or mourn in uncertainty

A dual feeling

In every violent change palpable

Like night and day

The soft light shines on the darkest places

From which a new reality is unfolding.
