A poem

I wrote this a while ago....thought that it was fitting and I wanted to share it.
Yes...I do write poetry as all Librans must.
An outlet when I am trying to see where I am.
It is refreshing to read these occasionally...to see what may come next.

Enjoy!

Untitled Night


The sun rose this morning…
I, breathing in the newness of the light,
was held with gentle tears flowing

The fears of the darkness and that reality
No longer tying me to unknown depths of loneliness
Ending in relief and bringing memories to the heart

Passions of life have flown by my eyes
Laughter has filled my soul
While time moves on at its relentless pace … never still

My heart is beating with awareness and eyes are open to life
The children gather ‘round to listen to my stories
Waiting for the excitement to fill their minds

The fields in the distance hold new growth, new smells, and new joys
Greens, violet, white…all waving for me to come touch and taste
Sunlight dancing upon my skin and hair, combing warmth into my mind.

Sunset comes slowly to the soul
Wanting the daylight to shine longer, the winds to be gentle
Walking slowly on my path of dreams to come

Then the time of night approaches me…the time of inner reflection
I will smile and wait for sleep to hold me still …
While time moves forward with my soul …breathing the memories of light.

The moon is rising bright this night
I, breathing in the oldest of white light
am holding my heart, tears flowing gently into my soul.
