Turning Promise Into Belief
Peering through her starlight
Time delicately beats
Coiling mystery into beauty
Condensing vision into feeling
Sensing her tenderness
It gently splashes
Wetting with anticipation
Marinating feeling with thought
Such a taste excites her palate
Sparks the imagination
Overwhelms all sense of reality
Ultimately infusing thought with possibility
Dreams take root
Hope finds new life
Impulsively encouraging us
To see possibility’s promise
Fueled by new perspectives
Time flattens the obstacles to understanding
Crumpling our doubts
Turning promise into belief
