Here it is...the Truth and Nothing But the Truth
So Help Me Sera!
I am blowing on my trumpet
until the walls FALL DOWN
and everyone can see the silly girl behind the wall
I don't mind
I'm not afraid of the derisive laughter or the stones
Bring it All On, please!
As long as He can reach me
that is all I'm after
I no longer have anything to hide
I no longer have any roles to play
I am His
I am Claimed
I am not ashamed of my cheesy grin
or the sudden pale softness
that leaves me vulnerable and shivering
Spring brought him to me
along with pastel peanut M&Ms and fields of dancing daisies
there must be a reason
so I will celebrate
and say Thank You! to the stars
and curtsy for karma
and put my message in a bottle
and send it out on the next wave
He is brave and so I welcome him with outstretched arms
and a Where Have You Been?
Oh, but you're Here Now! and I am so glad!
I could be sad thinking of all the years without him
but it is enough that He has found Me
and now We can begin!

Selah
it was it is it will always be
a crazy eight on its side
a magic carpet ride over trees
that sing rhymes
off key not caring
who applauds
or walks out
yawning
