Illuminated life

Storm comes calling
I hear the wicked wind blowing
Trees sway
And eyes open suddenly
Time taken to reflect
On this moment
The feel of limbs relaxed
Safe within
From the coming cold.
Skies open
Light trying desperately to squeeze between
The clouds like sheets
Glimpse of days beginning
As I drive through the drops
Of barely there rain
I ponder the energy that moves
And I am a part of
The whole that is
A new day dawning
And new dreams to explore
In my warming mind
As eyes explore surroundings
Not long now
And just one more foot forward
Closer to the edge
Of happiness.
