Do Not Fear

My child, do not fear

Have faith to move forward

Life may be unknown

Stretching endlessly in time

But opportunities await

Where doubt is left behind

Maps of our lives

Tell tales of the good

Laughing away tears

Rectifying quixotic hopes

Dressing chameleons

As they jump for joy

Lilac feathers worn by girls

Age life's secret paintings

Quiet blue candlelight

Obscures pearly promises

Cicadas sing in berry bushes

Calming anxious hearts
