Phyllis Babcock Poet Free verse

Open Skies

Somewhere along time I drifted
Lost focus of things important to me
I long to be where I was meant to be
Instead of lost inside of me
Somewhere in time 
My eyes became blind
Like the dark endless nights
I searched for that beacon of light
In order to progress I found myself
In solitude moved forward
Unwinding, towards new ideas, new growth
Knowing that nothing is impossible
Everything is reachable and within grasp
I look towards the future
Seeing all the wonders thru new eyes
As I reach for the open skies
