March 2 - The Hermit within

Today's blog is simply a poem I wrote to capture the feelings and knowings I experienced on the First of March:

Last night the cold winds whispered;

And the fog of fear settled around my heart

Unpleasantness and pain surrounded me

I felt cold, alone and in the dark.

Lost, I called out to the Universe

"Help me! I don't know which way to go?"

A glimmer of light shone down before me

An illuminated path began to glow...

I felt the wings of angels wrap around me

A travelling staff and lantern placed into my hand

"This is the path you are meant to travel..

Here, now, from the darkness, make your stand"

Unsure in this darkness, the lantern began to glow

With knees quaking; I stood and turned.

"This is your power that lights the way

Choose your path, now; consciously discerned"

I stepped into the beam thrown by the lantern's light -

Seeing this place with eyes that now could see

What I thought of darkness and no respite

Was actually my choices reflected back at me.

The day has dawned and the light shines bright

With momentary choices, my path revealed

Knowing when I feel the darkness set in -

It's up to me : the choice, the power to wield.
