Events.
Half-awake and stranded between the old
day and the new
coming tomorrows may look leviathan,
loom like clouds
of sharp-sharded, unreliable giants where
trust becomes sun-leathered
with nowhere to hide,
muscle-bound and most of the time
muddy-eyed.
But after a sip of memory's liquidity I can
shake away weighty foreboding
and see where faith
has been leading events,
toss off stifling clothes and walk nakedly
sure into the indistinct future
with shoulders high.
Facing fate with a smile of anticipation,
happy with being alive and
moving forward,
life's battles will lose a bit of their scary
sting as I dip grateful toes
into the moment.
Composure is all I shall need.

Yes indeed FAY ~ Life is indeed a journey laced with uncertainty. Angela & I have both faced sorrow and defeat at times and survived. However at the moment Life & Love are smiling on us ~ in both the Journey we are undertaking in the next few days ~ but also the immediate & distant future. We never know what a day may bring forth. We rely on a PRAYER and a PROMISE ~ AMEN ! Thanks for caring and sharing !
Blessings and Love in the SPIRIT
Yours BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡
Beautiful Fay, that composure will lead you to your dreams.
Through these words today i can hear you boldly saying "Bring it on, I'm ready!"
