I write of That Journey by Mira



I WRITE OF THAT JOURNEY     


 


 


I remember how my mother would hold me.


I would look up at her sometimes and see her weep.


 


I understand now what was happening.


Love so strong a force


it broke the


cage,


 


and she disappeared from everything


for a blessed


moment.


 


All actions have evolved


From the taste of flight;


the hope of freedom


moves our cells


and limbs.


 


Unable to live on the earth, Mira ventured out alone in the sky –


I write of that journey


of becoming as


free as


God.


 


Don’t forget love;


it will bring all the madness you need


to unfurl yourself across


the universe.


 


 


 


From “Love Poems From God” by Daniel Ladinsky.
