At This Time

Standard

At this time

You may not require the burning light

Of the sun

To revive yourself.

It might feel too harsh and the heat

Much too

Intense.

Sometimes it is the gentle

Caress

Of the moonlight you may wish for

To enlighten your heart.

The moon.

 Ever steady,

Waxing and waning.

Both the moon and the sun give light freely.

Each

 Have their own gift to offer

A soul in need.

I Knew Him

Standard

I knew him then.

The boy.

The child.

I knew him when the sun played on his shoulders.

When a glance at the clouds above would set him free.

When nothing could stop him from

Dancing

Or

Smiling.

It is as if another lifetime now.

I do not know what happened out there in the world.

I do not know who stole

Delight from his veins.

But I do know

Whoever

Stole it,

They did not take it all.

For

I see it in his shadow.

The Great Wilderness

Standard

I reopened the gate

And went out into

The

Great

Wilderness.

There I returned to the

Life

I new

As a child

And became

The

Peace

I have always carried.

For the birds welcomed me.

The wind embraced me.

The trees received me with a timeless remembering.

The dirt infused my senses with vivification.

The sky opened up in my heart

And the sun became a friend to my soul again.

I recalled this is where I belong.

There,

In

The

Great

Wilderness,

I did live

Once

More.

When It’s Raining

Standard

She only comes out

When it’s

Storming.

The raindrops embrace

Her tears.

She only comes out

When it’s

Raining.

The thunder hides

Her cries

As she trembles in

Fear.

She only smiles

At clouds

And butterflies.

Likes the sun in her eyes.

And now

She’s standing at the bus stop

Laughing out loud.

You see,

 She knows no one else

Can

See the Angels

Keeping company

With the

Lonely people

As they

Pass her by.

No Going Back

Standard

You thought you could keep yourself locked up inside.

Hidden from love.

Hidden from life.

But that was when you were with the others.

Before.

When you were kept from the warmth of the sun

And the caress of the moon.

Now,

You have opened your eyes.

Now,

You have tasted love,

Tasted life.

You ran against the forces

Within yourself

And won.

It has begun

And there is no going back.
