Today, we open Free

Today, we open Free

The dawning of a new day,

With sunlit rainbow rays,

Gracing the clouds to say:

“Today!”

 

Today we heal.

Today we unfasten the pain

and unlock the strained gates – to release.

To flood forgiveness

Across the plains

Of hurting history.

 

As the dawn unfolds its light,

Hope fills the gaping holes:

Of fear,

Of suffering,

Of shame,

To open the grieving child’s heart,

Releasing the pain,

Of what could have been;

To dream of what could be.

 

Today we heal.

In the sunlight of honesty.

In the sincerity of truth.

In the emptying of clouds

As they rain the release –

Tears of peace.

 

As rays of warmth extend out,

The yearning for self-care

Is exposed

Is confronted

Is healed.

Openly released,

Vulnerably held,

Undisguised;

Fatigue sets all free.

Today:

Liberation from negativity.

Self-love sets all free.

 

Today I heal.

Today I choose to open

My heart to The Light,

The natural lights

Of all that is good

and willing to love

and be loved.

 

Today, I open myself:

To Free.
