Running Wings

pondering moments as they flit passed the windows of my heart
pulse quickens as emotions take their time organising themselves
brave soul lets my mind remember as I wait for wisdom's gift
weighing the wounds and counting the blessings, I welcome journey's shift

deep throngs of chorus echo in the chamber of my being, I discover myself
I define who I am and who I am not and decide who I want to be in each now
where time serenades tiny dreams with fancy joys and they dare adorn my face
I await the woman I long to be in her completeness and her grace

each night unwraps the stars I hold as treasures in this life
calm mornings invite refreshing light I keep in tender grip
learning to unfold the barriers I have entertained within my core
I break the ties that bind me down and dare to dance once more

woven truths touch my lips as they take their first breath
unveiling myths I once believed, I learn to run again
knowing pain births refined perspective, I take another breath
and in the expanding I release the forgiveness I trust has set me free

I continue to cherish the skin I am in while wrapped in selfless gaze
my soul is stripped of pride as my heart hears beloved voice
white washing fear that has kept me lost, a clean slate abounds
I shed my shoes and dive right in where Saviour's song resounds



Creative Destination

 

Intrinsic delight finds me motionless as I think upon the advance of time and dare create a dream. Where wandering soul finds a path set and sprinkled with purpose. The inner workings of my heart bubble out and become a laugh. The sound makes me smile, right down to my toes, where light touches earth. Unfurling from within where barriers once held me back, I keep stepping forward while cherishing wisdom from journey past. Desiring hope which ignites a dance I seek truth from within and purge the emotional weights that have held me down. Discovering identity, defining the have and have-nots, the I am and am-nots.  Beginning to accept that I am worth of a precious kind, I realise I’m the prize of my present. This new knowing of who I am is the key in this victorious advance of life. It is here I realise that dreams are what keep my heart light within the trekking ahead. This refining of heart is the investment of true purpose while writing my creative destination.
