Discovering sight.









DISCOVERING SIGHT.



but as she walked quietly

as fast as her sandals would take her

trying to blow off hours

and days and decades of frustration

breathing hard

checking her heart rate

thinking “how many more minutes

will this take”

burning calories

burning emotions

burning blisters

into her feet

she glanced up

shading her eyes against the

setting sun

and

saw


burning light

burning bloom

pink petals radiant

as though on fire

as it leaned into final

evening rays

 
and


she

I am going to have to come back and visit more often, you take me to another place and it is a nice distraction from the chaos!
