Sandcastles in the Sky

www.babybites.co.nz

I see dreams in the clouds,
Not just illusions,
but perspectives,
indications.
I touch sandcastles in the sky
and let my eyes
look for me inside the walls.
I sink my feet into the sand
where the water draws
that which it erases.
I hold myself in common
prayer moments.
Sending my words to
Jesus, who promised
always to listen.
I hear his reply
in the thousand points
of light that shiver
through my prayers.
I trust in what He promises,
though I fail to
capture His wisdom.
I watch the pictures
in my fingers moving with
the passion of living.
I see the dreams in the clouds.
Not just illusions,
but perspectives,
indications.
I touch sandcastles in the sky
and let my eyes
look for me inside the walls.
