The Tree

Audra McDonie / Poems / Leave a Comment

The tree stands naked and bare,

clinging to the eave of life.

A toss of a coin decides life or death,

the sun still shines bright

upon it, but its fight for life

is invisible to see.

I see you holding on just as tight.

Alone inside yourself,

fighting to feel the sun.

Courageously fighting an unseen

battle.

Its torturous to watch,

But oh so inspiring.

I believe wholeheartedly,

In your victory.

I see you on a hill

in the bright sun.

Arms outstretched, healthy

and flourishing.

Feeling the rays of sunshine

tickle your soul,

fate smiles on you

and all is well.

Countless Wrongs

Audra McDonie / Poems / Leave a Comment

I remember her, small and sweet.

Not here long, but already having a sense of all the wrong.

Full of fear, but also hope, not knowing how to cope.

She’s still here, an innocent soul, who plays her role, but has no idea of the goal.

She feels it all, but now she’s built a wall. Always prepared for a fall.

She wonders if she’ll ever feel like she belongs in this world of countless wrongs.

A mother's love is strong and true, the best thing to happen to me, will always be you.
An invisible tether connects my heart to yours, I want to fight all your wars.
I know you must go your own way, I always knew the time would come one day.
My heart goes with you, and will always be yours. May your way ahead always be filled with open doors.
