Ready (Walk)

Walking down a yawning road I slowly start to drift

The leaves are swaying

The sun shouts its rays upon me like a burning kiss

The skies are praying

Will there be another day that speaks?

Colours play on my heartstrings

The butterflies whisper

Birds float on the song of the wind

But honey can quickly turn to vinegar

Will there be another day that listens?

Frowning clouds storm together

They threaten the goodness of my day

Once I have learnt to front the weather

Only then can I live for today

Will there be another day that sees?

Clearance in the valley leads to many perfidious paths

Some treatourus, Some glorious

I choose ordinary

The clouds depart

To know, is not knowing, not a hint, not a whiff, not at all

So I walk on never knowing

Accepting each open door

Will there be another day to be?

No longer are the blurred horizons running

No longer is the need to fill the air with talk

Finding stillness within this spiralling day

For only then can I walk

Ready to be

Ready to become

Ready for this day
