New moon
New light
Her stars inside
Burning bright
Through old pain
And cascading sight
New adventures
New delights

When new life comes
Will she recognize
Her own power
Or the gentle way she leads
Without giving way to fear
Of her own expanding heart
©Ashley Barnes
The hope she once carried
In her pockets until they spilled
Over to her heart
Promises of a new life
Now stuck in a stagnant slop
Blocking her flow
It’s time to let it go

Some days, truth is louder than others.
Some days, truth is more powerful than others.
Some days, truth is harder to swallow than others.
Nevertheless, it seeds our growth and wisdom.
What new life is being seeded by truth in you today?
When love is all she has
Clouds open up
And spill their gifts
Upon the scorched terrain
Cultivating and creating
A new life within
Where love is all she has
Her vision
Newly sighted
Explodes into existence
Like fireworks in her soul
A new way illuminated
The old collapsing into nothingness
