Something good will happen. This poem is excerpted from Sophia's Lost and Found: Poems of Above and Below
High on the east wall lies a dappled golden snake coiled all repose composed of sunlight on a forest floor of oak leaves, yet more solid than liquid light its latent weight an energy poised to strike.
