Beautiful Mystery
How very unexpected was the thing
that came to me, and not that long ago
as a request! It made me want to sing
for joy although I do not even know
what yet is to unfold as I await
its outcome. Something that might touch one’s heart
is being born; I’ve yet to know its fate.
But still I thrill to know I’ve had a part
in something beautiful. Like a cocoon,
it’s going to emerge – a butterfly.
I hope to see it touch the stars and moon
in glitter night as it soars to the sky.
I dare not dream. This special thing for me
I choose for now to keep a mystery.
