Happy Juneteenth!
If you don’t know what it means… look it up… it is a day of great importance in our journey as a nation.

Fade to Light

Living in darkness
Colorless faces
Fear of dreams
Fear of falling
Tripping on the climb
Whistling at shadows
Never risking desire
Distance thunder
Golden flashes light
Shadowed clouds
Clouds of rain
Better than nothingness
Better than colorless
Daring to wish
Daring to feel worthy
Of dreams of color
Of world alive
That can only be found
In the risk of insight
That sparks the night
And darkness fades
To color and light
