poetry from my book Casting Away Shadows

Poem Artwork


Casting Away Shadows

The light has come
To cast away the shadows
In time’s remaining hands
All that was left undone
Becomes a finished chore

Dancing into the light
Of remembrance
Of who I am
My sacredness
A key I have turned
Unlocking
My worthiness
With timid hands
That forgot
How to shine

The shadows barely there
Anymore
As they come
Into the light
To merge
Into wholeness

I may be reading this for my heart but I feel as though you felt you had failed and soon accepts what your final decision was which makes it all worth while in the end. Thank you for sharing.

"Casting Away Shadows" is a celebration of the sanctity of life and how such recognition transforms us from mere creatures of the world into spiritual beings that personify and glorify God's love.

"To merge into wholeness" fulfills His intent. It is as it should be.

I view this poem as a profound statement of spiritual enlightenment.

Well done, Patricia. Well done.

I find this wonderfully validating. You accept and see your worth and value it. I wish I could do that. I do hope that I am not being too forward in interpreting what I read from your verses. Thank you, Patricia. Love and best wishes,

Regis
