jasmine in bloom



a year of living alone

 
where the bitter and the sweet greeted one another each morning
 
 
where i found myself in a cage of bones
yet i also found the courage
to open my heart and heal
 
 
 now the sun grows closer...
smiling through the prayer flags
 
 
blossoms arrive
 

my emptied out heart
has let the songbirds in...
i have new wings
and am learning new songs
 
 
spring brushes softly against my cheek this day
 
 
jasmine sighs
a fragrant breath
 
 
 i whisper a sacred vow to myself
 
 
and let the sunlight in...
