"Wonders"

 Wonders

The twisting, turning love and life

The endless bounds of stress and strife

The ache you sing in trembled tones

The sighs that hit with stanza's stones

The wickedness displayed for all

The purity with which we fall

The trebled trips

The fumbled grips

The willingness to altar

The suddenness of falter

You fear that we are so alike

That, with a will, the thought will strike

Is it that you fear the end of night

Revealed, in all its glory, in the light

That love of life can balance in extremes

The windlass raising heart, or so it seems

The balancing of life is what I seek

Forget the bold, forget the mild and meek

And, thank you for the rhoetry, again

Once again, it comes midst wind and rain

Accepting all the tendrils of the fates

Children playing; loving, caring mates

All the wonders of the world

Before your feet, become unfurled
