The awakening
Posted on: 24 April 2022
Winter Solstice in Spain
The great grief
Upon rising
In the darkness
Before day break
Is discovering
That the nights dreams
Were only dreams
And the separation
Is awakening
Clouded eyes clear
As the blanket
Of your warm embrace
Slips away
Leaving me here
Alone
So once again
The day’s sacred work
Can begin
Stumbling my way home
To the source.
