Just waking
is a motion,
like a breath slowly taking.
A moment,
a solution,
a new life in the making.

More deeply
we search for need
as yond lights draw us sleepy.
Reaching out
nourishment's feed,
hunger's dream finds us weepy.

Moving on
the steps we learn,
so passing begining's dawn,
just to see
the life we yearn
in our hearts as pasts be gone.

Fear is a blindness, heart is the cure.   -   C. Belville 02

the last line in this speaks to me of new hope and promise - I like it a lot.

"If by chance
my words find
your heart than,
please, let your
heart find the words."

Superb.

At first perusal, it seemed to be rather incohesive. On second reading, it made me think. Thanks.

Me~

I sing to life
To it's tragic beauty
To pain and strife
Let all that dances through me
The rise and the fall, I lived through it all

God! Craig! What a rhyme scheme! You've pulled it off excellently, my friend! I'm impressed to the core!
