As she lifts the veil
Awakening morning’s light
Freedom is given
Her flocks fly hurriedly by
Before darkness reigns again

Child
Who is
Reflected
On the water
Bares her soul aloud
In the silence of night
As barren trees listen, watch
Her attention lies far away
Scattered thoughts unleash a roaring din
She wonders if the birds can hear them, too

Looking, not for gloom
I must seek the rising sun
Casting eyes upward
Knowing, I will find the light;
Warm comfort in these dark times

Golden droplets glow
Shimmering ever softly
In the pitch of night

Colleen’s poetry challenge for this week is Poet’s Choice. I chose to write an Easter Shadorma.
Easter morn
With smiling faces
Kiddies seek
Their treasure
No one dares tell them the truth
It is a secret
