In Plain Sight

In plain sight, I capture the first glance of a boy who once was a stranger. A stranger I’ve known many lifetimes. my mind can always take me to this look It lives fondly in my memories. I have known it many lifetimes. In my bed I hold a boy, overwhelmed , frightened, misunderstood. In my arms his fears melt away; He has known them many lifetimes. Overnight, I saw him become a man- one who has never been a stranger. In plain sight, another world begins. Through the glass door, the clouds are melting My angels open the sky for me Precious pink and warm orange paint themselves above the cascading waves of our ocean My life has been so much better Seeing heaven everyday This love has been gifted by the stars. we have known it many lifetimes.
