Replying to a comment on:
Light (Free verse) by Quarton
Light, on a summer night; chased by a child
whose hand reaches out--captures the light.
Opens her hand; the glowfly blinks,
then flies away.
In a far away galaxy,
a giant star implodes.
Like the glowfly, its light goes out;
infinite density the strange result.
The end of light, like the end of time.
A black hole remains, incapable of flight.
Child's hand closed, like gravity implied,
the glowfly's freedom forever denied.
