Ash On The Mountain

tiny ashes raining down,
returning to the world now
after the fate that took them up,
made them something more,
let them bloom in beauty
if only for a while

reduced now to a dry mist
they settle on the mountainside
so thin, so small, helpless
compared to the weight of it
and the weight of life,
the beauty that they carried
if only for a while

new life will grow here,
a mother’s angel child dance
along these paths unknowing
that the flowers careless in her hand
sprang from the ash of other flowers
carried to another mother,
and they brought her joy
if only for a while

It seemed like a good time
to repost this one, just
seemed right to me.

It is a gift... to be able to see the beauty that remains even when gray seems to have obliterated all vestiges of beauty and its memories... and remind those who most need that comfort.

Beautiful work... beautiful gift!
