Arise..Arise...
Someone handed me
the mic
told me it was
easy just say what you might
so, here I am with
something to share
pull up a chair,
or sit on the doorsteps of my mind
ramblings of a
poet the neurotransmitters of the brain
I expose the door
and welcome you with open arms
feel the inner
humming, drumming of my heart..
the driving
beat, that brings me to my feet
listen with
receptive ears to what you hear
a story of a woman,
who held a vision, a dream
she stood on a
distant shore, of ancient times
ancestors from the
past , ghostly apparitions ask..
where is the rest
of you, where is the rest of you
what does this
modern world hold..a trickle of blood
puddle of tears, a
river of flowing sorrow and pain
where is justice,
where is love, where is peace..
walking towards
the message of seven generations of tomorrows
impacting her
spirit to sing a song, a message of love
drifting in
the midnight hour, when the world is asleep
revelations
of yesterday flashing brilliance from within
believing in the
truth of dreams and starlit nights
dancing free under
the glorious full moon
so much love to
give, until the stars softly fell
from the
heavens..she tried to catch the bright light
but, all she
grasped was stardust..sprinkles of hope
quickly filling her
lantern a beacon of faith..
a spiritual love
is unconditional love
free from the
constraints of human love
divine
intervention from some other realm
songs blowing in
the distant four winds..
gentle wail of a
guitar, striking chords of harmony
from the darkness,
a voice rich and velvety smooth
rocking her soul a
rolling lullaby
strumming her pain
away, with gentle fingers
calming her
fears, drying her tears..a new vision
dark pupils dilate
with possibility, for what was seen
the known and the
unknown chime together
woven fibers in
the tapestry of life, etched in the sky
above the throne
of grace, gateway to paradise
day of awakening
in a golden horizon
arise, arise to a
new light..beaming bright
a new beginning..
