Gently the dew clings, the wave of sorrow passing

Gently she reaches outward brushing the mossy green through her fingers

Gently the crowning of the sun creeps through shredded ribbons of blue

Gently, cupping the sweetness of song she responds to the beauty of Creation

Gently her soul constricts wanting to speak life to the fabric stitched deeply within her heart

But gently she binds her pain, scarring her hands

Knowing one day, the sweetness of her existence will rock gently against the waves of life

Gently the song will be lifted to her Valley awash in her tears

Gently
