Kathryn Roush Poet Rhyme

New Breath into the World

Breath into heaven’s gaze, 
Gifted upon her sky.
Looking down, heart amaze,
Tethered to, set to cry.

Tears of joy, sorrow too,
All must fall; loves release.
Her embrace speaks her truth,
More love’s a heart of peace.

From her lip, quiet sigh,
Breath of life, never cease.
