As earth awakens with a roar,its molten heart begins to pour.Volcanic forces, fierce and wild,a warning from creation’s child. Red rivers carve the darkened stone,as smoke ascends, time stands alone.A force so vast, it makes life small,and yet, we paint upon a wall. In Berlin’s breath, a mural speaks,of future paths and wiser peaks.Colorful clash... Continue Reading → The post Fire to the Wall appeared first on Grace of the Sun.| Grace of the Sun
The morning sun slants soft and wide,a shadow flickers on the side,an arm, a hand, upon the wall,its shape uncertain, strange, and tall. A little gasp, a startled cry,she turns and runs beneath the sky,her brother laughs, “It’s just a game!”but feels her fear and calls her name. They tumble out through golden light,across the...

Today I smile, my mind feels clear,| Grace of the Sun
Today I smile, my mind feels clear,a birthday filled with love and cheer,but just one year ago, the rain,from hurricane Helene brought pain. The winds were loud, the night was long,we stood so still, so firm, so strong,and now I see how far we’ve come,with light blue skies and warmer sun. Through every storm, we’ve...

Morning hums in the gentle air,a rustic bed is waiting there.Warm sheets are rumpled, soft, and worn,a quiet space where dreams were born. Ornate lamps glow with amber light,a round mirror reflects the night.He lingers briefly, then he goes,a man released from workday woes. The door clicks shut, his steps are slow,the lake ahead begins... Continue Reading →| Grace of the Sun
Through the fogged glass, two shapes appear,both shadows sit, interest drawn near.Seasons have passed, yet here they are,a meeting set beneath the stars. The café hums, the dishes clink,she feels her pulse, too fast to think.Those long years live between their eyes,the silence carries old goodbyes. She sees him stir his cup of tea,his glance...

She lives where peaks arise,soft blue and endless skies.Set table waits for two,one cup sips up the view. Bright orange flowers sway,light up the mountain day.An empty cup now gleams,fulfilled with long lost dreams. Best friend at last is near,their voices blend so clear.Engaged with warmth of tea,firm bond flows endlessly. Great festival begins,with laughter,... Continue Reading →| Grace of the Sun
She climbs the steps with gentle care,to where the arrows climb through stairs,Colorful worlds faraway skies,day dreams written where wonder lies. The ocean hums as waves roll near,a storm will come, it’s shadow clear.She runs inside, the thunder sighs,the house a shelter from gray skies. Fresh raindrops scatter on the glass,each bring soft whispers as... Continue Reading →| Grace of the Sun
Her eyes were tired, heart weighed down,her boy’s sharp cries had filled the town.Her tears were heavy, spirit worn,her son’s deep struggles left her torn. Love held her close and stroked her hand,searched for a ways she’d understand.Love softly said, “I’ll bring you rest,maybe some peace, I’ll do my best.” “I’ll bring you food, a...

Upon the sloping rooftop tall,where turrets guard the bricks and wall,Scatter of birds have found their seat,their chatter drifts above the street. Loud pigeons coo as sparrows shift,the rooftop hums, a feathered drift,but one lone gull, with watchful eye,looks past the tiles toward the sky. The chimney’s marked, the tiles are stained,by wings that linger,... Continue Reading → The post Wishful Cravings appeared first on Grace of the Sun.| Grace of the Sun
She gazes through the misty panes,a wooden bench just brushed by rains.Gazes past thoughts that cross her mind,lands on echos both warm and kind. Tall pretty trees serve as a screen,a grassy yard, a quiet scene.Within this hush she drifts in time,back to her youth, soft raindrops chime. Lush branches dance in gentle sway,with blades...

Far away dreams that slipped worn hands,from island shores to busy lands.The Bronx was loud, the nights were long,she worked and prayed to keep them strong. The bills piled high as time ran thin,she tucked her quiet guilt within.“No time for games,” she used to say,while Spanish words just slipped away. Her babies grew with...

He wakes up exhausted,feels the same while in bed,his world is distorted,numbness laced with pure dread. All moves feel so stagnant,within his encaged thoughts,dull memory fragments,haunt false tales he once bought. Disguising sorrowed tears,wears a slight broken smile,his attempts carry fears,often seen as hostile. Raindrops produce music,that cascade on his head,gifts of hopes that may...
