Remembrance ..

The soul is on fire the body gone..
I raise my eyes to the sky, you, the dawn..
Each hour of the day reborn..
You are the light that through all time shone...

When I sit in the places you were..
Every fragment of memory held dear..
The good the bad all you feared..
Were the fibers of life we steered...

That footprint in my heart I see..
On it the light will always be..
The one that guides me to the shore..
Anchoring my character at the core...

Cleansing me every second..
Straightening that every bend..
Strengthening that very integrity..
Bathing this life in purity..

A Twig Off A Tree ..

I watch the trees ..
In a storm ..
As the wind whips them
Back and forth ..
They bend,
They wave in all angles ..

But they never break ..
They just snap back up ..
And stand up straight ..

I wish that I could be ..
Like those trees in those winds ..

Agile...
Unbreakable ..
