I find no bay to sit by and let my emotions flow
For there are many within which overflow
the contents of my heart and my soul.
“Is it the dirt within or the wanted ghoul?”
I ask myself while I wander so lost and disbanded
in the streets so full and demanded.
While I see the world around in the darkness and glow
I seek for light from within to fill the darker hole!
“Am I the only lonely being or are there many-
Who shed a tear from within and then look so funny?”
“Innumerable there are!” said the winds which brushed
as I walked with my thoughts in plenty and heavy.
A mile away, kid I saw dirty and naked, baking in the heat
Bathing in the dust and dancing to the barks with a smile
Knowing no pain, no hurt nor emotional was his mother
Who smiled through the tan and broken skin and ruffled tatter…
With no place to hide, no bay to rest and none to ponder upon
They lived their crumbs with honor and there I hushed!
All the tears and the pain- they disappeared like the clouds
And I beamed as a rainbow with tinkling eyes and a clearer vision
Of how thankful I must be to Thee!
The winds must have smiled as did they and HE
‘coz it washed off the dirt and gleamed a new Me!
As
I knew I found my bay in Thee.
