Mystic poem...

Spinning planet, in your elliptical flight
You encompass the world in your hypnotic race

And you make us dream, stronger than in the dream time
Of colours of the earth, of ephemeral reflections

When light and shadow are sometimes combined
That an improbable moment shines in the heart of the night

The union of opposites, the balance of things
The dark force of a rose petal

A motionless witness that you pass to yourself
Over and above the seasons, mountains and plains

A fragile bridge launched, bringing people together
Through infinity, and space and time

A wonderful, implacable and cruel mirror
Of our little frights, of our material fears

A gift without return, which is always coming back
Light as the wind, soft as a caress

Immemorial beauty and millenary magic
Azure distillate, and diamond of dust

The beginning and the end, the alpha and the omega
Your flight is born in my hand and dies in my arms

Pierre Boillon
