Equilibrium

Equilibrium 

Sometimes . . .  when dark clouds fill the skies,
the world seems out of balance and cries. 

But then . . . as two hearts touch in the darkness,

suddenly . . . the equilibrium of life is restored,
clouds disappear, and the sun begins to shine once more.

Spot on in every way. Some hearts have capacity to store sunshine for when the clouds appear. Hopefully one day most will understand that. In the mean time poems like this need to be written. Take care David in NZ
