Wisdom
Learn more about this artwork
Down from the great light spiral She steps,
Curious and called to the new light,
Learn more about this artwork
Through the great Dark and shattered Light, She steps.
Onward, toward Her Sun.
His red roar becomes a background hum.
His orange glow warms Her body.
And She rests.

Wisdom shares one deep breath,
And dreams
Of green.
