Symphony №9 — Shattering Glass

Words of affirmation
bless the dust
curse the ash
cloak the shattering glass of my wings

Carry me on high in the steps of my grief

Quake

Physical love
stir from beneath

Lift me up
bring me to my knees
acts of service
quality time

Primal beings
scorch the ash from the trees

Gift-giving love not giving-up
carry more
Inspire me

Words of affirmation
bless the dust
curse the grief
give me peace

Walk on water
baby swim through seas
pebbles in the pond perfectly placed for me

Drown

Physical love
stir from beneath
lift me up
bring me to my knees

Acts of service
quality time
primal beings scorch the ash from the trees

Gift-giving love
not giving up
carry more
inspire me

Words of affirmation
bless the dust
curse the ash
cloak the shattering glass of my wings

- G. D. C.
