“The Messenger”

THE MESSENGER

She speaks in silence-
void of mouth,
Robbed of sound.
Yet, her soul screams volumes:
pleading,
begging,
showing,
…if only you listened.
Her heart flutters as her wings;
through the blinking starlit eyes
…coldly watching in the night.

She follows you,
Loyal
like the moon…
drawn to your light.
Lured by your promises,
to love, to feel, to live.
To see the “Truth”-
concealed within…
writhing,
yearning,
waiting…..

She brings messages of Hope and Faith
Transformed in new life.

For her wings will unfold,
…as her noisy soul endures,
Inside her mouthless shell,
Yes, her Truth shall be told.
