My Own Personal Renaissance

 My Own Personal Renaissance

 My own personal renaissance is

   Yesterday was and all that is,  is

 ...and is there for me

 Once I saw it prayerfully

 What a reawakening

 Now at that point I carefully...

 Pulled the wrapper off my heart

 Expecting a fresh start, I

 Read the instructions for the 1st time

 Something about that first line

“Open your heart” touched me

 Next line even deeper

 And that was the keeper

“Love with all your heart” blew me away

 Renewed me on this day

 Even moved me tearfully

 Now at that point I cheerfully

 Allowed my heart to let what wasn’t in

 Its is-ness become passé

 Swaying what yet hadn’t

 Seen what I saw, share for me

 All that is, is & is there for me

 Now at that point I dared to be

 Comfortably

 Exiled…

 …From a dissonance called ‘my past’

  And in my own personal renaissance

  At last
