"Reflections
"


Another Shore

Into the night she weaved her breath
strangely sweet with the flowers of mirth.
Into the night she sang her song and danced
the melodies of earth.

Into the day she galloped to realms
beyond the realms of the morning
and sang her song, her morning song
and carried her head high against the scorning.

She dreamed the dream of another life,
of another time, of another space.
Reality became the dream,
and the dream was of another place.

"She's mad!" they said, but was she mad
or did she know what others ignore?
There is a world beyond our thought
which touches on another shore.

A Poem, A Song, A Smile

A poem is nourishment to the soul
A song is nourishment to the heart
A smile sometimes brings sadness
And enlightens the spirit of love within.

My Soul

 My soul aches for the sun,
    hot upon my skin—
        an inferno
            dripping sweetness
                from millions of miles away.

Turn to me, oh sun,
    and speak your name
        into my heart—
            for all life emanates
                    from you.

Turn and gaze upon me,
    and pierce my soul—
        an arrow piercing a target—
            an arrow shot from a star.

My soul aches for you, oh sun.

Poetry of Hope


Alive

I speak your name,
    but no one listens.
I spell the words softly
    in my mind,
        but there is no one to
            interpret what I hear.

I listen to countless
    messages,
        playing and
            replaying.
My heart aches,
    and I don't know why.

I listen softly.
    I scream loudly.


I awaken to the scream of
    my own voice,
        but no one hears my cry.

Out of the dust I come,
    rising up,
        strong and alive.

Turning,
    I look to see the force
        supporting my tired frame.

I see my face reflected in yours,
        and then, I know.

Reflection

Blue
    reflected from the sky in
Wet pavement,
    in icy fields,
    shining into the eye of the soul,
Reflecting God's glory
    as in a heart of glass
    with many facets of light,
    swollen with pungent memories,
    made whole by the work within.

Earth and sky
    connected as one,
    no barriers in space
    save one-
    the limitation of the soul
    who seeks God's glory

Think not that it is done
    for our glory.
It is a collective consciousness
    returned to its maker.

©1996 Sharon Terry
