In celebrating of this special month of POETRY

I post a poem each day.

Easter Sunday Morning

The early morning choir twitters

chirps deep inside the dusty bushes

accompanied by low, long mournful tones

of wheels turning against the pavement.

A hidden lemon chiffon sun brightens the sky

somewhere behind layers of melancholy mists –

softly warming the mahogany branches

of starkly naked springtime trees.

I made no special plans for today-

no periwinkle blue shoes or silky amethyst dress.

Instead, I recline on soft linen pillows

and write on ashen journal pages.

Tranquil. I listen and watch.

A gloomy opening of a hillside cave

unravels  through my thoughts.

from somewhere in the Eastern world,

stories of old dreams continually told.

I contemplate the meaning of this day.

John 14: 5-6

Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”

6Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
