Notes About The Poem

Contemplate

Quiet pieces of my heart, fragile
Delicate like silk or hope,
Betray the breath of my past,
Aching through the flames
Burning away my disgrace, my shame
Lifting doubt from the shadows

Gentle stars reflect my soul, shimmering
Like laughter from the sun,
Beaming down, erasing the clouds
Creating beauty from the darkness,
Promising faith to always believe
In the wonders that my soul receives

Distant thunders sound through the skies
Abiding in mysteries, tantalizing
Secrets filling my mind, 
Coloring memories in hues of longing,
Feelings both kind and compromising,
Publishing joy through the solitary comfort

Hushed sounds, tenuous flakes
Soft like the serenity, the abundance
Whispering tranquilities, abiding
On the powerful authority edging history
With this winter’s caress, the kiss
Sensitive like the miracle, shimmering

Rich with details, my love
Vibrant and strong, curing all 
That is wrong, believing – dreaming
Stirring the song, inspirations
Alive on the moments I know as
Beautiful, brilliant stories of my heart
