Hello Anon
Time is the great healer.
It reminders me of Stephen Spender (The Still Centre) "To break out of the chaos of my darkness / into a lucid day..."
A very night pair of 5/7/5's in the right form and manner for the contest: in which I wish you well. You send a very positive message.
cheers
phill

Thanks, Phill.

I don't know as much as I should about Stephen Spender. The only poem that springs to mind is "My parents kept me from children who were rough...' Took a quick tour through wikipedia - sounds like an interesting character.

I honestly prefer this abbreviated version to the full poem you give us in the notes. It is quite lovely. And while, to me, this stinks of POETRY, I cannot deny that it also works as such. Very nice.

This is a very good contest entry. You should do well in the voting booth. According to my physic cat, you will win and send me half the money. I don't accept checks.

Thanks, Thomas. If your cat is right, it doesn't matter whether s/he's physic or psychic, s/he certainly deserves half the prize money!

Transformation-- by the power of Spirit. I loved this witness to being made whole. Darkness, wounds of the past melt away in the presence of God heralded by the coming dawn.
