If We Could Speak Light

could invite it into
our cracked vessels
 
then we could coat
every rough surface
 
the way tiles bond
with grout and luck.
 
If we could pluck shards
from the dark, the unknown
 
then we could discover
their shapes and sharp edges,
 
to see where they fit together.
We could fashion a mosaic
 
of patterns and pathways, 
of fear, hope and love –
 
all shining, all blessing.
