Pseudo Highs

Lately I've been on flats, between heaven and hell
Who but the Almighty buffers me from lack

My stance is firm, I move with care
Not to tear or deplete what's left of me

As parents persevere, praying renewal of psyche
Grown children are puncturing precious time

You'd wonder why wise women still ride so high
On horses that will topple them in wilderness

What simmer souls from stilts that do silent
Damage to free will's humbler spirit?

I have learned it takes time for the clearing of
Cobwebs clouding fair point of views

Who will wed serenity and naked troth of this:
Time and space and grace heals and inspires simplicity with humility.
