MEANINGS AND REASONS

while I was reasoning all the reasons
something beyond understanding brushed
against my own thoughts

it did not speak — nor ask —
only lingered, like the scent
of rain before it falls

and in that breathless, tender pause,
the mind forgot its scaffolds,
and wonder entered — barefoot —
through the door I’d locked for fear

Now revealed.

WERE WE TO SEE

Were we to see beyond the morn
Where borders cease to be
And hearts forget their hemispheres
In one immensity

No creed would bruise a blossom’s face
No coin would weigh the soul
And mercy, like a meadow, spreads
Without a fence or goal

The sky would hush its ancient wrath
The wind would lean and sing
And every child a citizen
Of just the dawning spring

It may be but a vision still
So fragile in the air
Yet dreams are seeds the angels sow
And truth begins with prayer
