SORROW HAS WINGS


Sorrow has wings
Let it fly with the south winds
Walk into the Sun
Taking the light into your heart

For today
And maybe no other day
Freedom of spirit
Blossoms anew like a rose

Touch, a simple thing
So close to another
Whisper love like thunder
Rain not tears from your eyes

When to listen to others
How they can mislead
And crumble a dream
Lift your mind to moments cherished

A simple touch
A bird on a limb
Take the chance
Fly with the wind and dream today
