The Voice

by Michael


There is a voice
that cries within the night.

Though faint it is,
I’ve heard it many times.

I’ve walked beneath
both stars and rain
in search that I might find,
and found to my surprise

that voice was mine.

yes, sometimes if we but listen, we can hear that voice, and learn from it!  Michael this is so perfect in thought and feel...
