Tasting Peace as Flowers

Surely now the clouds are reaching up to angelic prayers
For an alibi that will return their peaceful grace
In hope tomorrow's arms will be a saving reservoir 
To reverse all the battles fought in this place

The layers of heaven remember echoes of glorious love
In streaming colors which cannot be erased
Even as clouds were weeping with every heartbeat
For precious moments not to be replaced

If reaching clouds peered inside the golden rays of sun
For sweet words to warm tomorrow's hours 
Would hearts made of stone awaken beating soft
To taste peaceful dew of grace as flowers

Surely now the clouds are reaching up in appreciation
For sanctuary found in the arms of reprieve
Perhaps if we too reach inside golden rays of sun
This coldness in our hearts, would leave

Author's Note

Didn't know what else to do today but write.........we couldn't read each other. I missed everyone! I actually found this picture AFTER I wrote the poem, some things are just meant to be.

Surreal Art of Vladimir Kush he is so awesome
