Beautiful

The unexpected story that changed a moment.

Beautiful

Safety of sleep flies away with the break of day

Abandoning the comforts, we rise, brave with faith

Today is the first day of the rest of our life, ha!

Washing away the last of sleep with cool water

We see, again, visions escaped from our dreams

 

Gentle breeze which cools every creature here

In the country-side place called ‘Home’, peace

Songs from the past fill the air from radio speakers

Fresh coffee fills the air with delicious expectation

Fortified for our new day, our minds open to its touch

 

Braced now for the world we turn on the News, TV

And watch as the femme-fatale describe new terrors

Life doesn’t stop it seems while we slept quietly

She delivers good and bad stories with her smile

Probably pissed she couldn’t sleep one more hour.

 

Life lost, life saved and the story of an Angel

Who appeared when a victim ask her rescuers

“Please, pray with me.” Then he appeared

The helpers became calm and efficient, medics

She was freed and now rest safely in a hospital.

 

Funny how just one story played over skeptic’s lips

Can change the view of this world and its grief

Hope born and given to the ears of all listeners

Watching you could see even the femme-fatale

Had a moment of trust and faith, beautiful

This is an absolutely beautiful story and very well written! And it is true, occasionally, to have those who appear mighty or above the rest to have a moment too. We are all only human no matter how much we try to hide emotion.
