Tempest of Confusion

The crispness of the day 
clarified my confusion. 
Icy fronds perforated and 
injected furred up elements 
with sparkling clarity. 

The fog cleared. 

My mind had been tossed 
on storm clouds of bewilderment. 
Winds of change had carried 
me away from where I 
wanted to be - blown off course. 

The tempest stilled. 

When the sun shone it 
penetrated the dark corners 
of doubt.  It's heat warming 
the cold bleakness of abandonment; 
the golden glow 

melting a winter of loneliness. 

A spring of hope is sprung. 
A newness of vision and 
clarity of contentment. 
A new, refreshing direction. 
Silver lining shimmering in the 

winter sun. Storm clouds gone.
