Finding Paradise by Michelle Shekina
Innocently
I fell into a strange dimension
to play lost and found
searching for the magic elixir
where dreams come true
and love rules
Wandering
thru many lands of promise
unable to hold on to lasting peace
Belonging is a moving spotlight
across foreign places
Awake!
but the dream runs deep
Which way do I go?
North, South or catch a falling star…
Bound by gravity
I pause and retreat
to where I Am
Suddenly
a golden orb
kaleidoscopes
into a moment of Truth
& paints a new horizon
Realization
as the warm breeze
whispers an invitation
“Be here now.”
