sonnet 2021

when all the world around does fade away

and hope shines through the clouds that block the sun

I find this life of ash and soot turned grey

begins to shine more bright than anyone


though rain that falls may sting my cheeks at times

more soft than tears that fall the drops obscure

my eyes are clear and see beyond the grime

to where all things are washed anew, made pure


although my hand has yet to feel your touch

each day I know is less to wait for you

what thought it makes my joy abound so much

to hold you close until you find me true


this life so full so lost is whirling free

as I with you am all I wish to be
