Song for Rae

Everything is black
Not dark
But black

A creamy yellow-orange dot emerges
Smaller than the head of a pin
Very much smaller
Coming from the deepest corner of the void
Revealing a robin's egg blue sky
There are no clouds
There are no clouds

The dot becomes a cone
Growing and growing and growing
The cone is infinite
So
It is
A beam
Of light

And the beam reveals
Mint green hills and valleys
Dark chocolate brown houses
Children playing ball and jumping rope
Parents working the green
All underneath this fantastic new light

Between each reveal
Is time
Far less than a split-second

And there is so much joy
There is so much joy
There is so much joy
Joy

However
Nothing was revealed
T'was brought along this beam's journey
A miracle that started as a dot

Oh and this beam smiles
Proving it's a she
Then she laughs
Assuring the world
Once black
She wasn't a beam at all

She was a Rae
She is Rae
She is Rae
She is Rae
