A VISION IN THE LIGHT

I was standing in a garden in the most gorgeous light. From a sparkling glass pitcher of water, I filled the cupped palm of my hand and the flesh of my palm was magnified by the precious light and water. I sprinkled dark, rich soil from the garden into the water in my hand and raised it higher in the light. Forms of plants and animals began rising up from my hand against the cloudless blue, blue sky and began unfolding in an intelligent, full-color drama. I felt my face in a broad smile that always precedes joyful laughter.
