Leaves of my soul
flutter in the fall,
lay offering, but
detached in time
absolute as another
breathtaking vision,
assaults my senses
to thieve breath
The offering Plate of life
Is passed at the end,
now naked I confess
I am bankrupt of hope
The shade of tomorrow
Fades into the distance,
mercy holds empty hands
Bereft of miracles, sigh
forever in awe of compassion
it touches ever more gently,
capturing a piece of beauty
for the heart of my mind
Becoming a galaxy
birthing four stars,
a miniscule speck
now stains forever
four lights flicker
to Guide me home,
Stroking away pain
I finally steal resolve
A marathon of hurricanes
cross my peripheral,
and are driven into infinity
they will clear the way
Hope once again
Trickles into veins
broken but ever
waiting recognition
all that I am
is all that I can be,
resting with infinity
under the southern stars
Peace holds my prayers
and redemption, waits

Hi Jayne
Another beautiful one, Jayne. One that states the return of hope. Thanks for sharing..
As the leaves fall from the trees,
the land whispers a promise
of a new beginning as fate decree
in the continued cycle of life
