Weathering The Storm

A poem about acceptance and forgiveness

Weathering the Storm

A cat amongst the pigeons
A shard beneath the sand
Fanned flames of discontentment
Doused into the ground.

Wild rivers of betrayal
Begin to flow with calm
Beyond the dark horizon
Stars begin to form.

A bridge that once was broken
Is carefully restored
The raging storm’s subsiding
In time for a new dawn.

Daybreak brings restitution
The sun’s not far away
The radiant atonement
Turns darkness into day.
