Tears displace the mask that hides our pain so that healing can find us & renew our perspective revealing truth!
Celestial lights/
long past twilight/
loose turmoil/
on my dreams/
rain clouds let flow/
bounty below/
on thirsty latent seed/
torrential blasts/
displace the mask/
and somber thoughts recall/
how lightning flashed across the sky/
electrified my soul/
thunderous applause/
"Bravo!"
I call/
Sky bright & crystal clear/
I smell it/
TRUTH/
the day brand new/
my mind does grasp it too

The use of nature to portray ones own emotions, is a very clever and refreshing way of putting words into a delightful and satifying write. This work is very skilfully done and I congratulate you for it flows beautifully.
