A glass of light

The glass of water
with a candle behind it
receives the light
diffuses the light
through its whole being
and magnanimously
radiates the light.

The glass of water
with a candle behind it
receives the light
without preference
judgment or selection.
Receives it all
and passes it on.

May I be the water
still and unmoving
full of light
and radiating light
to all corners
of the darkened room.

May I be the glass
receiving the light
in fullness,
without preference,
sharing the light freely.
Receiving it all
and passing it on.
