Harmony of Two Souls
Harmony of Two Souls~
The porch swing gently glided to and fro
The fireflies began their dance among the darkening sky
Their lips had not yet met, nor had their hands ever touched
But their souls whispered to one another, longing to reacquaint
Unknowingly he breathed life into her secrets
Unknowingly she exposed his heart
The night grew darker, their eyes grew heavy, they bid the swing adieu
Come again….. called the swing
The darkened sky
The dancing fireflies
The gentle to and fro of the swing
Their hands met
Their vision unclouded
Their truths set free
Their worlds forever changed
Infused with grace
The unveiling of two souls awakening into a new world

In a Moment
In a moment….
In a moment, life is beautiful and then it’s not.
In a moment, your heart is open and free and then it’s crumbled into a hundred pieces.
In a moment, you feel proud and accomplished, then ashamed.
In a moment, you are sure-footed full of motivation, then lost without direction.
In a moment, you trust, then you are filled with deception.
In a moment, you feel God’s grace and pure peace, then wrath and despair.
In a moment, someone is right there, then they’re not.
In a moment, every moment you find yourself in your triumphs and failures, standing tall and falling on your face. Then in a moment, you know what you know. You know your truth and in that moment, you know you are truly ok.

Shadows~
I am the sum of all that has passed through me, no more, no less.
My past shadows come to linger with my present; I tell them to go.
I am no longer those things that have brought me here.
They are only a part of who I am, pieces of my past, fractions of my life.
Places, people, points in time, like an old friend or lover that once walked by my soul.
Intimately, each piece of my past makes peace with my present, then crawls back into the shadow.
I am the sum of all that has passed through me, no more, no less.
