Make a wishA Poem by Daniel DawesTaking a step forward in life with faith and trust.....An opening in space as the voice of self calls in the distance like a genie in a bottle, Begging and whispering for the stillness to prevail, Sighing at every loss in the moment of a transparent story, And smiling when home is present or not. An old clock begins to miss its beat, As the chirping bird never misses hers, A call into the darkness where all reflection of light is given, As the shadows play with form. One simple song for all, With a million threads all singing, Then falling back and back again, Into trueness and peace. Vastness in an open door , Fear and excitment at stepping through, Only to see a lone gatekeeper, Welcoming all with open arms. Searching and fumbling, For a space in time, Which can’t be found, Shh, don’t make a sound. © 2014 Daniel Dawes |
