Yesterday, when I was angry <br />With the world <br />And made you cry… <br /> <br />I went and climbed <br />That sanctified hill <br />Where our new dreams should begin… <br />And I found that fabled calm <br /> <br />Where the bluebirds come <br />And twitter <br />In that smaller thorn tree… <br /> <br />The one that looks <br />As if it was the one … <br />Where they made His <br />Crown of thorns… <br /> <br />Standing at the kitchen window <br />Our evening meal…complete <br />We quietly watched <br />The doe wander down <br />To feed on that newly greened grass <br /> <br />I wondered if you followed <br />Me back up to that sacred space... <br />Would those bluebirds return? <br /> <br /> <br />April 10,2006 ~ <br />Mountaintop, Tennessee <br /> <br />published: <br />www.abovegroundtesting.com July 2006<br /><br />Debora Short<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fabled-calm-2/
