Meteor Shower

Poem Artwork

 

She watched, paralyzed and numb

as a thousand stars hit the ground

with a sound only she could hear.

 

The world became dark –

for how long, she cannot

remember.

 

Yet, a spark remained, which

grew into a glimmer of hope,

that lit up the night sky.

 

This –

a new beginning, with eyes

to the future, where dreams

forever press forward.

Dawn, you and your Meteor Shower brighten my day as I return
to the Den from 6 months of darkness. It's a beautiful way
to come home. -gene.

Beautiful, Dawn ~ the light in our core never extinguishes, but can often only be seen in the dark. The dark can be the backdrop of growth and expansion. So glad to have you back; you've been missed.

When read literally, it is visually appealing. But when you take it metaphorically, as I believe is intended, it is a most poignant and hopeful piece, Dawn. I need to find that spark. Beautiful write. ~Elizabeth

A beautiful metaphor, Dawn, that lights up the dark areas within our own souls. It can be such a healing thing to first go through that pitch-black... because then you are aware of when your Morning Star first rises and from which direction it comes, thus giving you fresh perspective and onward guidance. Onwards and upwards is my modus vivendi/operandi!! :)) xx

YES...IT IS SUCH A ENCOURAGING THING, WHEN NATURE ITSELF SEEMS TO GIVE 'CREDENCE' TO OUR JOURNEY'S 'NEW' PATHS. A MOST ENJOYED OFFERING...DONE WELL AND APPRECIATED. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS. LOVE, JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

Dawn - Vivid imagery and metaphor for hope. That's what keeps us going.

Especially liked these lines:

Yet, a spark remained, which

grew into a glimmer of hope,

that lit up the night sky.

The light of hope is easier to see in complete darkness. Isn't this an interesting paradox? :)
