Your Title Goes Here

Colorless world of gray and white
timeless days one into another
hands at side not moving just there
laying growing inside festering to be
flame refusing to be distinguished
beating drum on auto pilot
clinging vines clasping to branches
knuckles white refusing to let go
then in the mist she rose
first just a small glimmer
fire spreading on dry branches
swift in flight soaring
higher and higher rising
cold held tenderly by warmth
a new day has begun

Happy it is so nice to see you. It's been a while and I will never forget your comment on my "I AM THE WIND"

You made me cry. But this is so beautiful on the last line. A new day has begun..The picture reminds me of a beautiful sunsets I had the beauty and peace of witnessing. Or in this case the rising of a new day..

Thanks for sharing

This is so strengthening to read your great song of hope. A new day! Thank you!!

Jyonnah I am shocked

You hit the nail right on the head. That is exactly what this poem is about hope. I thought no one would ever figure that out.

At first all hope was dwindling away and then it refused to die out it came back to life. I am thrilled you got it

A gem of soulful beauty. You are a magnificent blessing
dear.

I like this Happy, the last line brings to mind the daily renewal of hope and optimism as exemplified in the song Memory from the Lloyd-Webber musical Cats...

A fine write
