The stars
Give me pause
Not because
They're divine
But because they are there
At the end of a long stare. A long line of sight.
Candlelight
Gives me pause
Not by chance
But by the dance
That it does
In flight,
In the air.
Words
Give me pause.
Meaning,
Purpose,
Cause
And effect.
I reflect
On it all
And pause.
