FOR MY SWEET LITTLE LIGHT

Folder: 
JOURNAL#15

little avenging angel ( mercy)

so bothered by the fettered dawn

death she clasps to a harnessed hope

as memory feeds upon her lavish lawn

ever lush hails to the grass from the

wink of such a flirtatious wind

beckon me back to a time of sweet

simplicity

and I will paint for you a glowing

portrait of the end

flower of youth

her arms overflowing with soft, fragrant

blooms of unhurried serenity

smiling so guileless with a heart

brimming full of treasured truth

how quickly in Heaven they all run to thee

you whom promise comes to so naturally

we'll see each other again very soon........
