Kismet, I Shall Not Fear
The crepuscular sky resounds each dawn anew,
I fear not kismet, only embrace the will of the Lord-
when today fades and tomorrow comes to renew,
I shall cascade in the warmth of joy and accord.
For I know my future will be my greatest reward.
Resonating in my memory is laughter’s tune,
a melody I hope lasts ‘til my final breath inhaled-
and when I say farewell to the evanescent moon,
I pray the loving essence of my yesterdays availed.
I will cease each moment knowing kindness prevailed.
The scent of lilacs filling a forest field,
tasting medallion sunshine when the day ends-
a plethora of autumn’s crimson blades shield,
the changing of life's season transcends.
I have found comfort in my family and friends.
I see a future that bestows what I never knew,
possibilities are endless with hope in sight-
I shall raise a glass to all I did, even what I didn’t do,
and all my transgressional wrongs I’ve made right...
fading into the abyss of heaven’s lullaby light.
