Philippians 3:13-14 "...forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize of God’s heavenly calling in Christ Jesus."
All the sleeping angels
who are keeping me awake
come to me crying, sorry they
failed to recognize me here on Earth.
Though the play is nearly over,
and they merely played their part,
they want to rewrite the story, save me.
Or recast me as the happy Princess Queen.
I come so close to saying, "Yes!! Let's
just rewrite the whole damn thing," but remain
still and silent, calling with my Spirit for the One,
fixed on finish line, conclusion of this race well run.
What it all has meant for anybody
or for me is anybody's guess, yet I find
deep satisfaction in knowing I have done my best
to love again all the little children alive inside of me.
I smile to see him waiting in the distance,
waving wildly the checkered flag. I pick up my pace.
Dropping all distractions, I run fast and forward toward
all the sleeping angels who've been keeping me awake.
