Poetry: Enlightenment

by Patsy Page

Created on: April 26, 2008   Last Updated: March 31, 2012

I sing with an uplifted heart.
Today is a beautiful, glorious day.
Outside it is cold and gloomy.
But inside my heart and soul the sun shines.
I accept this for what it is.
Just a day like any day, but something is working for me.
Why? I don't know.
I refuse to destroy it by questioning it.
Tomorrow I may wake up with shadows in my soul, and the sun may be shining outside.
But do I care? No! For today I shine.
For today I shall rejoice for the small things around me.
Maybe this is the inner peace I hear others talk about, and I've prayed for.
Is this the encouragement from God showing me what I'm working for?
I accept it with all my heart and soul.
Now if only we could get the sun to shine outside at the same time my heart shines.
Eventually that day will come. I know it will.
For didn't God promise us a rainbow after the storm.
