Blue Eyes Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Sorrow falling from two blue eyes, streams into an aching
heart.

Full of compassion, impatient joy, whispered dreams, afraid
to hope.

Transcending it all, planting a seed, slowly growing in it's
own time, taking hold and becoming strong.

Lost upon many starlit nights, prayers seemingly unanswered,
skirting the skies.

Answers flying unheeded through all the worries of the day,
lie fallen upon deadened piles of decaying hopes and dreams.

Fears filling every thought that takes it's hold, causing
sleepless nights, full of tears.

Praying, easing the tight stranglehold we've kept unknowingly
all along.

Letting go, realizing a little at a time that life can then
be filled to overflowing.

When releasing all thoughts, hopes, dreams and prayers, life
can then be learned to live according to God's plan.
