Where the night meets tomorrow
A new day sprouts with promise
Dawn of the rising fresh mind
Arriving new season showing its hand
Yesterday’s miserable fear and loss
Suffering memories of imperfection
Vanish as the dark of the ending night
Gives way to the beauty of the light
Colors, alive in the visible air
Intersecting realms, newly aware
Breathe in the majestic, if you dare
Risk a moment’s divinity there
Entering again this forest
Ancient chill filling the dawn
While just beneath the surface
Bubbling heat rages on
Child of endless wonder
Smothered by deception and pain
Sucking in warm putrid water
Misery strikes once again
Mumbling softly in the dim
Alone in the rising new smell
Welcome to the loss of your sanity
Nearing the rusted gates of hell
Gladness and joy
Passion and peace
Celebrating blessings
All grow larger
All mean more
When shared with you
Sorrow and pain
Sickness and loss
Imprisoned in fear
All grow smaller
All are easier
When shared with you
Life shared
Joy amplified
Faith brightened
In your presence
In your care
In your love
In love with you
Cauldron of mystical potion
Boils into the dark and moonless night
All who will partake in it
Will burn with the demons’ great fright
Loss of all that once mattered
Surrendered for a taste of magic brew
Grinning the grin of the damned
Desperately wanting something new
Numbness of life’s perfection
Sacred food at the table left to rot
Taste a taste of darkness
It’s waiting here, fresh and hot
Bursting forth from the frozen tundra
Flower begins to reach toward the sun
Growing from the bulb planted in warmth
Filled in the nutrients of a giving earth
Quiet peace flows from the vision
Of the petals, pure, true and new
Love most perfect, real and forever
Beautiful blossom of most soft petals
