There's a New Day Coming!

sadness
      tears
overwhelming pain
    memories
that won’t go away

memories
      keep circling
‘round and ‘round

 the body
    remembers
              the
                   pain

tears 
    falling
         freely

 slowly,
   at
     first,

 then building

        into a
     
                                              O!!!
                                           D
g                                    N
  r                               E

B-U-R-S-T-I-N-G

   the tension
       and fears,
 with gut-wrenching sobs
      and  more
    and  more
         tears

a shake and
       a  tremble

feeling  t i r e d
   worn out
         and
            d e p l e t e d

 shaken
            and
                    spent

t

       n

  with 

  each

   tiny

 breath

comes a

new sense

 of  peace

   and

  r
     e
      s
         t

  for  the

    soul

of the one

    who

   takes

  a breath

     and  

   breathes

        in

 the breath of  

    new life

     deeply 

 into their soul,

     knowing

       they

        are

        still

     ALIVE,

   living and

     whole,

   believing

      there

     truly is

        a

     NEW

     DAY

  COMING!!

Here's something new... a form of visual poetry... for my posting for April 5th!

  1. I like the form, but I do wonder how many sheet of paper it would take to print it.

    Ha ha ha!! Perhaps it's the architectural HIGH-RISE form of poetry! I guess you would need the old, perforated, fan-folded, printer paper to print it out as one, tall poem! (smile!)
