Orange Sky
Last night...
I dreamed of a puzzle with too many pieces,
A heart with too little love, and a life with too little time
Then, I laid my sorrow in the grass
An offering of nightmares in exchange for hope
I wept...He smiled
And from my pallet of darkness,
He painted the sun in an orange morning sky,
Bursting through the trees into a burning heart of gratitude
I was renewed, reborn into a new day of grace...of mercy
I cannot escape this relentless love,
I cannot fathom its depth or beauty,
I can only embrace the unspeakable secrets that penetrate my deep shadows
Like light exploding through cracks in the soul,
It consumes my night and illumines my way!
