5/14/19A Poem by Andre Peterson
It turns out I am not alone in these sleepy meadows.
Morning breaks and I am astonished at the wonder and peaceful silence it brings. Yet the wind chills me, and I hold onto myself as a loving friend would. I often look back behind myself hoping to see a familiar face. With courage and a deep breath, I continue forwards. Sometimes I find myself surrounded by others, hospitable only by the kind souls who gift a smile to you as they walk by. Perhaps my aura is not as frightening to some? Obsolete, but a welcoming home. Many have told me my eyes hold the fierceness of the wilderness. Perhaps they can see the moon reflected in the thick of my iris? Pouring dreams unimagined. Always searching for that captivating night. Where do I go from here? I am just waiting to hear that voice to whisper back. © 2019 Andre PetersonReviews
