I Must

There is an emptiness I'm not sure how to fill
It is as if all is standing still
Waiting for the bitter winter's release
and the song of birds in the lilac branches reach


Gazing through the greying gauzy curtains
I am lost in why and it's uncertains
Whether I get past this time of snowy bliss
allowing for natures miracle to bear again it's witness

I am hoping to taste again all of the pleasures
One by one I will seek the treasures
In every flower and tree and  buzzing insect
Bowing  gratefully to the Mother in reverent respect

As I continue plodding on this fertile earth
pondering who, what and why is my worth
Scratching at the surface of  sacred ground
Is the answers I will search until  heaven opens abound

I kick at the ground and watch the raise of dust
To turn and see and question thy must
It is all before me for my soul to take within
For every step taken forward is where I've never been
