Vision Verse Poems - Today I Am Gathering

TODAY I AM GATHERING

Today I am gathering my summers and springs
Thawing the ice of attachment to things
Erasing the headlines that see only dark
Replacing the deadlines with a walk in the park

Today I am gathering my favorite dreams
Forgetting the limits that logic brings
Untying the tightness of tender neglect
Rebuilding the Me that I used to expect

Re-learning to let go and laugh once again
Making the morning a familiar old friend
Not being serious and not keeping score
Allowing myself to be silly once more

I know there are reasons for weeping and pain
There is always a season of cold and rain
But when the rain’s over and crying’s all done
I need to get past it and have a little fun

So life isn’t easy, so it’s not a free ride
I refuse to hold all the hard times inside
If I can just offer this day half a chance
I think it could give me a reason to dance
