White Rabbits

White Rabbits       8/17/2015

 

We are cut loose

And free fall into nothing

Counter rotating

In between nowhere

And everywhere. 

Down into a rabbit hole

Where down is up

And up is down

A strange place

In a strange time. 

Unhinged and chaotic

We are jostled in our womb

Deceived by the messages

Hidden everywhere. 

Come see them dance

And come see us run

Scattered in all directions

Hated, hunted, and done.  

I think and I dream 

I pray and I write 

Holding each precious spark

Like a treasure 

From heaven.  

My little son

Climbs up, and into my arms

I hug him and I kiss him

Praying for him

And praying for me. 

I imagine myself

Running from afar

“Father hold me,

And protect me!” 

Climbing into his arms

Strong and mighty

More than able

To bless and protect. 

Children are pure

And children are innocent

Giving freely

And holding nothing back. 

Let my love

Be the same

And let my heart

Rest upon the truth.

Without suspicion

Or assumption

Pure of spirit

And hope. 

At home, where we always belonged

Peaceful, contented

Spirited and laughing

Loved and loving

Forevermore.   

This is what I pray for

And this is what I want

Nothing but loving you forever

Never looking down

And never looking back
