Imagine

Take a moment to picture -
A black backdrop - negative space,
And let grow in it a silver sphere.

Let it turn round in that space -
Observe how some unknown light,
Glints across the visual edge.

Just enough light to catch the shine -
To show the turn.

Now pouring down comes the clear water -
A solid stream which dances off the sphere.

Watch holes the water doesn't flow in -
perfect lines straight down.

But lilts and looks as if some one's fingers -
Were distorting the stream as it comes down.

And now a light is focused through the water -
The stream turns pink then blue and orange,
And then remember that you are only imagining.

There is no sphere with colorful water in black space -
But yet it will always be there,
When you choose to remember it.
