Terra Firma

A pendulum will swing as the seasonal
earthly tones of autumn litter my mind
and reflect in the pupils of her eyes.

Her valley which is the epitome
of strength, will bear abundance and
I will revel in extravagance.

Palms will caress each other for the
first time and a void will be refilled
by delight and reverence.

Dawn will breach the morning sky from
a distant horizon and the lukewarm
light which is the source of life,
will put us back on solid ground.
 
Splendor will be etched in time and our hearts
will find the courage to make a truce.
