as painful as it is to confess
these dark lonely times are
building something extraordinary
in me I suspect
spirit paths most exquisitely laid
though fears in a downpour
with their all too human grief
they've paid
into blessed blessings
these mangled moments
have morphed
to look beyond the horizon
is to see the sun at its core
magenta delight
hand over your spoils of war
as this 'Exquisitely Fortunate' woman
walks through a most beloved familiar
door.................
