Being...
written by Cehlia Nicole Newman-Menendez 2002©

Ever content, ever wandering, everlasting, supreme,
ere we contemplate the sun.
Shining, giving life, swelling within the soul,
it at once begins.
The first a pulsating, emotional butterfly,
fluttering within expanse, surrounding.
A light shining brighter within each passing day.
Growing, quivering,
this being of expectation.
Sharp, penetrating,
as the eruption of sound in silence
Release, refresh
Creation of knowledge.
At once, sound to break the silence
complete serenity
a prelude to the
cacophony of life.
