Winds of Change

Winds of Change

My heart so loudly sings
to the feet a dance it brings.
Yet in some way restrained,
by circumstance it seems,
to be let loose and fly away
- of that are my dreams.
 

Just when all seems so right,
comes a cloud dark as night.
It's shadow long and grey,
it seems to me to say,
"In me there is a change,
uneasy and all so strange."

But such a specter will not win.
Enduring through thick and thin,
so
this too, I will behind me put.
With a strong heart, a willing foot,
I take a step through the door
to another place
a brighter shore.
