footprints in the earth.....
After the stormy night
Waking
to a different light
yet apparently unchanged
Sensing
a reborn plight
spirit undaunted
hearing the pater noster
unchanged
the gloria
mustard seed has grown
the morning after
seed was sown
in ground thorny and fertile
two years and so after
returning
exultant to the womb
after inhaling the mundane air
free
skybound
litanies all surrounding
assured of eternal light
breathing a prayer
two years and so after
For a return to firm faith in God after a period of darkness confusion and worldliness
to a different light
yet apparently unchanged
Sensing
a reborn plight
spirit undaunted
hearing the pater noster
unchanged
the gloria
mustard seed has grown
the morning after
seed was sown
in ground thorny and fertile
two years and so after
returning
exultant to the womb
after inhaling the mundane air
free
skybound
litanies all surrounding
assured of eternal light
breathing a prayer
two years and so after
For a return to firm faith in God after a period of darkness confusion and worldliness
