a wish...

One day I will be chasing peony clouds

And swim in the ever blue…

And to shatter those chains of doubts

I must discover that other hue

 

That will melt my burning resistance

That makes me such an outstanding lone star,

That shines on with such a focused insistence

Yet that light can’t ever reach so far

 

To yank those weeds from the garden

That invaded the silent shrine

A silence that had roots long and deep… yet forgotten

A rare purity - melodically crystalline…

 

Those few who can hear that song

Awaken and spread the light

So those hearts that slept for so long

Can finally reach the end of the night.

[John the Baptist]

The rhyming, irregular meter and spiritual focus of this one make me think of Emily Dickinson. Verse two, with its discussion of resistance, is especially profound. Well done.
