Flight

The sky is no less beautiful tonight
With its wisps and billows painted 
It fleets on wind and blows away
Into the horizon to come and visit
We fear, we fret, we despair 
Yet we cannot change what is
We can change the way we react
Walk in love, find the path of the cloud
The color of grace hued in the fading sun
Let it bring the slow comfort of forgiveness
The resolve deep within to sit with neighbor
It is but a moment and gone, just because
It is our moment doesn't mean 
We get to opt out, live in it, the sun
Rises and sets and so to will this 
Uncover the deep strength which made you
Remember it made your supposed foe too
