A Legacy of Faith

FAITH CALLING

to live a life smaller

than one charted by

the stars, by

the gods, by

God

is to rob the world

of your GLORY

Who are you

to decide you are

LESS THAN?

you find

my ANGER

unreasonable

my RAGE

incomprehensible

you find

my WRATH

an affront to

careful planning

SENSIBLE - you say

well I say - FUCK SENSIBLE

throw your arms WIDE

tip your face to the sun

embrace the WILD

roaring in your chest

release all the

YOU

into a world desperate

to know there is,

there most certainly IS,

a different path

a PATH forged out of

courage

vision

curiosity

a breath deeply taken

in tandem

with a step

into

the UNKNOWN

this is a life of FAITH

--------------------------

a life of FAITH is calling

CAST OFF fear

societal obligation, the myriad

of dos and don’t jostling for

purchase in your spinning mind

you were made for

UNREVEALED adventures,

no maps or timetables

stifling your steps

you were made for JOY

cascading laughter filling

then spilling into the dark,

bringing HOPE to the weary

you were made to question

why? how? WHO SAYS?

disarming the status quo

with LOVEs light

allow the hunger

heed the whisper

to be MORE

I wish it for you,

this LIFE of faith,

its POWER

would be my legacy

a final GIFT to you

I beg you to hear its call.

Sincerely,

Mom -
