Petal Offering

Spread your petals round my ruffled heart

Sooth my pain, settle my soul.

Tell me there will be beauty in my world again.



I wake up and wonder where the crack began

Who stirred up the unrest beneath our wing

And whether or not we'll ever fly to freedom.



Feathers and ribbons streaming on the breeze

Find frenzied blooms and buds dancing naked

Under fluffy clouds with my tears streaming.


Castles in the air, branches bare budding

Bleeding life in to cold air and hope

People poor hungry seeking shelter



Needing more love than I can offer

Nothing for sure in the world anymore

Except living for tomorrow.



Peace
