I could feel the dryness of my eyes from
The lack of sleep that eludes me when I
Should be its captive. I can barely see the
Sun through the mist and fog that surrounds me.
Yet, I awake and I know that it is unlike any
Morrow that has ever welcomed a new day to any
Soul that has ever asked why. There is no reason
That can explain other than the wonder of the moment.
I ask myself again must I walk in a cloud of darkness
And ignorance that is unable to open the clear light
And brightness of truth. Why is there war, hunger, and
Suffering in a world so full of wealth that it should not know want?
Truth and knowledge may not always be as simple as
Seeing a light that illuminates our path through the dark
Shadows that obstructs our way. It is easy to listen to an answer
That prevents our consciousness from knowing wonder and awe.
Yet today is a day unlike any other because that dryness that
Has deprived our consciousness of light now illuminates it with
The wonderment and awe of that star shining in each of our hearts.
