unfettered

Folder: 
perseverance

allow me to bask in this moment

temporarily unfettered

by chains of anguish

and bars of nightmarish scourge

allow me this hour to breathe

well rested and unconcerned

tomorrow certainly may

come surging with a vengeance

against the peace of this today

no matter, this now, this here,

this wondrous present softly near

has proven calm and agreeable

aye, the sun has risen over me

shining brightly through

the shadow of my misery

dispelling every doubt

and dubious uncertainty

resting, i find my self encapsulated

by a hope i neither reject

nor dare explain away

YES! At times there is this

YES! At times there is this hope that just is, without qualification or description. And to explain it away is to diminish or banish it so best to just let it be. Such a wonderful expression that speaks at least for myself at a place inside where I can at times decidedly be found. Thanks so much for sharing Big Evan.
