Angel Food Cake

Leaves a picture

Baring Beauty

in my mind

a taste of glory

on my tongue

 

Angel Food Cake

Leaves my eyes

leaking

with joy

my heart

welling up

from love

my hands limp

of pride

 

Angel Food Cake

Leaves

Dissolving

into thin air

of the mouth

of this world

Baring Pain

 

Angel Food Cake

Leaves Shoes of Peace

Walking all over me

Stones

Thrown at me

from the seas

making a path to shine

one would think the deep to be hoary

Boiling

Breakers

over me

Baring Life

 

I tell you that

if these should hold their peace

the stones

would immediately

cry out

 

i tell you that

if these should hold their peace

Angel Food Cake

Oceans

An Island

and Palms

A Home

and a Rocking Chair

Rainbows and Bridges

A Hill

and a Lone Tree

Soil

Shoes

and Stones

Immediately

Cry Out

 

For me

 

Angel Food Cake

Washes Up On This Shore

Of Sand We Share

Waving White

Sea Foam

Splattering

Beauty

in the midst

of me

and you

With Us

in the midst

of the Land of the Living

 

Angel Food Cake

Leaves

Footprints

On the sand of my soul

In the stone tablet of my heart

crying out

For All to See

 

I can't explain

Angel Food Cake

I can't. I know. 

Explain that.

One thing

I know,

that,

whereas I was blind,

now I see

 

Angel Food Cake

Left

for me
