And if there is such a thing
as miracles rising up
like mist on the mountaintops
in the early yawn of the morning
when the velvet sky surrenders
to the blush of pink and blue
then we too shall find a way
to lift ourselves above the mire
of the everyday world
beyond the watchful eyes
trying to create our design
within the boxes they
have drawn for
their own lives
We shall take the lessons
of the frayed past
gently sketch a vision
of the future in charocoal
against a clean canvas
The way we know it can be
if we just keep holding hands

Excellent writing, Michelle. It adds a solid element to the romantic metaphor.
My "recommend" and comment were eaten by Gather a few minutes ago. I hope it "takes" this time.
Thank you, my dear friend, for "the comment that was and no longer is". LOL! :)
