“To hear never-heard sounds, To see never-seen colors and shapes, To try to understand the imperceptible Power pervading the world; To fly and find pure ethereal substances That are not of matter But of that invisible soul pervading reality.

To be a smile on the face of a woman And shine in her memory As a moment saved without planning.”
