Begin of Miracles

When someone asks me about miracles,

it's when I heard her

read poetry for the first time.

Here, in this room,

we're intimately acquainted.

I intimately understand it.

I peel myself away

to make sadness a stranger.

The peace of knowing

descent is an exhale.

It's harder when you don't

know when it will end, so

let this be the way we begin.

Beginnings should be what they are supposed to be: perhaps a slight loss of memory mixed with determination, then, off you go, forge ahead, smiling. There are miracles researched and confirmed but the greatest in this day and age is finding a miracle within Self, altering the path, facing the all around even that in the shadows.. reminders perhaps. 'so let this be the way we begin. ' Yes!

like poetry...we take the ride as we write or read it...not knowing where the journey will end.

there is a person on this site who reads...he has read some of my work aloud...
it is transcending....He could make the phone book sound good.
For me, getting to write poetry is a miracle.

Such a beautiful passage of life, of love... of miracles that shape us and transform us into our better selves. So grateful to find more words from you here!
