Light in the Sky
Don Hynes
You seem so far away;
when I call you
my voice echoes
in a cavern of stone,
words thick, clogged
with the refuse of belief.
I struggle with deception
the way I'm fooled
by hunger and despair.
I see you in the distance
coming toward me
with the old familiar look
the voice of a friend;
you weren't so far
except through
the glass of the world.
This is the morning
your words say,
ringing off the sky
into the deep clear blue.

A very beautiful expression from Don...I love the way he expressed himself in poetry and ending with: This is the morning your words say, ringing off the sky into the deep clear blue. These words, nor the experience, aren't unfamiliar to me, but thankful I am for the deep clear blue. Thank you, David, for posting this.
