In a troubled dream
Once you stood alone
Where a door sign read:
‘Closed for Season’
One too many nights
Spent wondering why
Wrestling questions
Unravelling wherefores
Trying hard to understand
How roads less travelled
Could get you anywhere
Pure trust as a child born
Kept you waiting there
Where rivers touch skies
With arms open wide
You know dreamers still dream
And so do you, finding out
Someone went all out for you
To bring you to this place
That says: Welcome home
No outpost where you belong
Life’s just fine-tuning forever
In a song & the universe sings
Love’s here, now, and always

I love the verse “Life’s just fine-tuning forever in a song and the universe sings”. Outstanding. Beautiful piece and message!

The blend of familiar phrases with soft, fresh, articulate lines was a beautiful treat. One of those smooth-moving poems that didn’t skid into a cliché. I loved the ending. I loved the message. Thank you.
