I happened to catch the tail end of a movie last night that really was a beautiful story about friendship, family and home. It inspired me to write the following poem, hope you enjoy it but more importantly, hope you understand it.
Are you mine
in the heart beats of a song
that echoes through the night so very long
In silence of the harmony unheard
woven neatly into every word
Are you mine
within the gusts of winds so strong
tossed about by waves of right and wrong
Crashing onto shores that can’t be seen
the edges of life’s wonders blue and green
Are you mine
inside the slender hour glass
that represents the years that come to pass
Slipping grain by grain so far away
lost but not forgotten is the day
Are you mine
as the fortunes start to turn
derailed by fleeting lessons yet to learn
With stumbles that appear before the fall
in the shadow of endeavours to stand tall
Are you mine
in the moment that it’s spoken
when the voice of true wisdom has awoken
As eyes become so open they must see
are you mine when all I have to give is me.
Deo Volente
