Turn Away To The Day Poem by Patti Masterman

Turn away to the day, where the sky’s hung with wonder
Follow back the forests, whose paths swallowed time,
For kinder are hearts, where emotion’s not plundered;
Love feasts a long time, on what's left behind.

Turn toward the laughter, that rings like forever,
Returning the trust to the words we forgot.
At first light of day, breathe a prayer not to sever
Things now so dear, that with courage were bought.
