prisms of hope


kaleidoscope of fear



struck down

heart wounded and bleeding

the floodwater gates cannot hold

hold the tears of hurt,

tears of pain, of shock

shrouds of darkness

not understanding


the clock mocks

moving you forward

heart discouraged

walls have crumbled

holding back nothing

wells are drying up

puddles attest to what once was


a hand holds

helping you along

heart strengthening

walls have fallen

refusing to be built again

clearing the rubble

the smoke dissipates


winter ends

warmth filling

heart smiles weakly

limping forward

slowly yet determined

falling here, stumbling there

fresh air embracing


spring begins

heart is at rest

gingerly walking

strong yet holding on

the healer removes the bandages

beauty is springing forth

strength resides


in a prism of hope.
