Reposting an old poem from last year’s #OctPoWriMo, first posted on 10/26/17
Finding connection between courage and caution
Silent moments resonate in naked reflection
In this dream, the blind see
Undiscovered sacrifice comes knocking every so often
Summoning the sun as skies drizzle, I curse my imperfection
Finding connection between courage and caution
In a quiet room, I pray on bended knee
Waiting, waiting on a path to choose
Silent moments resonate in naked reflection
A matter of faith, this search for truth
My mind wanders with each possibility
In this dream, the blind see

“In a quiet room I pray on bended knee…”
Wonderful poem, but I love this stanza the best! So familiar with the waiting part!

I particularly like “In this dream, the blind see”.
To me, it’s such a powerful phrase. I’m not even sure why. Some connection I have with blindness, a fiction I read as a teen where light didn’t exist, and how some discovered the outside world and light.
Sigh! I can’t remember the name of the book, but it sure made an impact on me 🙂
