If you listen carefully on a still night,
you can hear the tinkling sound of
the coralline sand settling back down from
the uplift of a wavelet.
It is the subtle sound
of bubbles bursting from joy,
of tinsel falling from the Christmas tree,
of stars coming into being,
and of potential futures narrowed
to the reality of now.
If you listen carefully on a still night,
you can hear the universe.
