Celebration
February 22, 2010
Emerging from the shadows
An Awakening
in light
Pushing past the false selves
A fledgling
reborn, tonight.
Layer upon layer of untruths
Melt from my skin
like ice
Puddles of darkness surround me
Evaporating
into the night.
The stars slowly descend
To encircle
my inner being
A dance of light and love
An ethereal Celebration
of Seeing

great work!!
I like the going past self to discover the inner being.
From your “The Winter of My Soul”:
The shadows, they reach out for me
As I push each of them away
I embrace the solitude
But, alas, its loneliness aches
From your “Celebration”
The stars slowly descend
To encircle
my inner being
A dance of light and love
An ethereal Celebration
of Seeing
You’ve taught me to fear not the shadows, they could be stars or angels guiding my path. My soul is quieted by these words and yet it dances.
Lovely and clear! I especially appreciate the theme of awakening.
Had to come back and read it all again.
Layer upon layer of untruths
Melt from my skin
like ice
Puddles of darkness surround me
Evaporating
into the night.
Thank you.
