Heavy Snow*

There is a division between pain and moods 

They may be sisters but mayn’t always join hands

Oh meditation I honor you

Together you remind me of my inner spirit and how loved I am 

You bring a song my heart  

Joy and peace to my soul 

Oh how the grass turns green even though there may be turmoil 

Oh how the cold white snow glistens in the morn light 

Oh fierce winds you have pruned my tree with a natural beauty 

But today the lights shine over this tree 
and the sunshines even brighter through you then before

I smile yet I still cast a shadow

I am beautiful through and through  

You speak to me in each step I take

I am here

I exist

I may sink deep at times but rise up tomorrow 

I may feel low but today there is no denying the sky  

The same heavy snow which breaks the branch 

brings it beauty
