Meandering through
the crystallized mountains
my spirit awakens
with the message
of those who lived long ago
yet still, walk among us
They spoke to me of
kindness, respect
and the resolve to
stay steadfast
in hope and optimism
They showed me the
ability to ride
the tiger to battle
and to surf the waves
of emotions
I tasted the
tears of fear
of loss, of joy
I felt moments
that seemed unbearable
yet, still remained perfect
Hearing the laughter
Tasting the sweet kiss
Smelling the land
Touching the stars
Seeing the sun-rise
and set
Knowing
every day
every night
the times I fail
or falter
or act in the most human of ways
if I keep my heart open
and listen
the message remains the same

Sometimes when we are in need of guidance, we look for it, and it comes to us, in the least expected ways.

Alexis Rose, you put into words for me, so beautifully, the experience of living with constant fear since my son disappeared, yet every day loving life, loving my family, and wanting to do my best with the time given to me. This poem moved me to tears today and was, it would seem, exactly what my heart needed to hear. Thank you. ♥.
