Night and Day

By Malinda Meadows

There was something different about her

Like a tuning fork in her brain

So many ways it did and did not

Continue to make her sane.

Sending out the signals

And receiving them

Knowing the many ways that exist

To say and mean amen

“So be it” echoed in many tongues

Singing a song by their bed at night

makes the soul arise and take flight

Into the web of connection

That pulses with history

The invisible webs connecting us;

The divine mystery

That pale like the moon yonder breaks

And heals and breaks again

With a fear overtaken

With a portion approaching zen.

And so she rises again

To face another day

To sing like the daffodils

In the month of May.
