Yet I Remain

Yet I Remain There are no tethers, yet I remain, no locked doors or barred windows, no walls, no chained gates, no guards, for I am free, of and from, any bondage to this world - save love. These bonds do not constrain my love they light the way that I may see its beauty, adjust the lighting lest a shadow pass across my heart. Such bonds are not a limitation, they are the gleam of sunlight reflecting on the surface of a waiting moon. This invisible web, more delicate than the finest spider spun silk, resonates the hum of distant breezes, holds to daybreaks dew drop dreams, enfolds in perfect symmetry one half of whole. This power to be unattached yet still connected, a pebble reaching out in rippling touch, a thought, its only true vibration, caressing with its freedom those still longing to be free. For PD’s - ‘a poem you have not entered in a past contest #11’ John G. Lawless
