Our song

I always feel so grateful when the storm has passed

When the sun shines peering its face out

From behind those clouds

That pass on by

I love the feeling of the rain

Receeding

As much as I draw comfort on days when

The heavens open

For a while

There were so many many years

In which the darkness lay around me so heavy

It felt impossible to smile

So that now I see the self who struggled

Only with compassion

How could I be somewhere I was not

How could I truly find the way to go forward

Without counting the cost of what was

Lost

And yet sometimes it occurs to me

That all I loved can never be

Perpetually

Taken

For love lives on

Even in strains of sadness

That arise as I listen to a song

We used to dance or sing to

Because along with the shedding of the tears

Come as well

Feelings of gratitude

For I know in time

The storm passes on

But what always remains

And can never be stolen

From my heart

Is the lingering refrain

Of our favorite song

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.

  1. We are, always, looking, searching for, that, clear, blue sky, when we’re, being, rained on, and sometimes, the rain poured, too hard, we lost, sight, of, that, patch of, blue skies, that’s, hidden, behind, those, dark, clouds…

    My next segment should resonate very closely to you.

    I know what I am and I don’t try to hide or run from it.

    1. Aww that is spot on…but what I am trying to articulate is how it feels after you bore it through, integrated the pain, and then got the burst of new life and healing that follows .. Its hard to express the depths of the process sometimes.. but i get what you mean.
