While we had a dream

sorenbarrett

While there was a dream, it did seem

we were held together with cloud tethers

welding a strong beam

of sunshine in dark or stormy weathers

 

Torn promises, time's pockets robbed

behind broken rainbows lay in the path

stones sighed, clouds sobbed

watering fields of sprouting wrath

 

Kiss of the past in cement cast

Night's bloody hemorrhages expose the pallid face of day

clouds wispy knot tied tight and fast

until buried moonbeams under foot do lay

      Amazing how you can articulate this with such elegant visions of the inevitable. sorrenbarret you brought a tear to my eye, the struggle and challenges and in the end the peace at least knowing pain and suffering is finished. That is my interpretation of this write. 🌹 Kudos in every way.
