#WritePhoto Mystical Window

January 4, 2018 — #writephoto, poem, poetry

winter-rose

In deepest slumber on the coldest night of my life
I was shown a vision with no explanation or key
A window appeared to float above my dreaming soul
It beckoned me to gaze into the unknown to learn
Why our daily lives now are so deeply troubled
Roses, symbols of love and sainthood, bloomed
Still somehow danger and decay very closely loomed

I woke in a cold sweat without a clue to what it all meant
