Fiyameta

Moving silently without direction
Like an old Saint 
Quick yet perturbed
Mimicking a malnourished child 

A silhouetted figure in the dark
Slithers across the curve of the Earth 
While the dewdrops gather at their pruned toes
Just to find 
You.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
