Writing from my wishful heart...
Outside From Within
I awoke by my window
And caught a glimpse of the outside...
The sky was a dull blue
While billows of heavenly smoke
Drifted by...
They drifted East so I
Made a wish...
That the day star
From me, be not hid!
But then, the wind sighed
And them billows
Drifted westward and I cried...
'Stop and clear away
I want to be under blue skies not grey!'
As I whispered these words
The wind sighed again
Gently this time...
It kissed my cheek
Clearing my sleep laden lids
It told me a promise...
Sunny days haven't left yet
And hope is what I need, to be
Outside from within...!
