Sudden Kindness from the vault

 






Sudden Kindness


You spilled the milk! she sharply said
And I, clumsy little bit of a girl that I am
Hung my head and nodded in guilty silence
And that's all there is! she rebuked me further.

Nodding again, I felt a big tear form in my eye
Slide down my face and fall into the small white puddle
I could never do anything right no matter how hard I tried
That much had been established.

Feeling her anger, I sought to run but could not move
My bare feet were frozen to the spot
My tears, falling like rain now and blurring my vision
I did not see her moving towards me.

There, there, she said in a soothing tone
As she took me into her arms and smoothed back my hair
It's alright, it's only milk, it's not gold. We'll go buy more
And I was so surprised by her sudden kindness that I began to weep.

In This Corner





































IN THIS CORNER 


IN THIS CORNER OF MY WORLD
WHERE THINGS ARE QUIET AND DARK
I SIT AND THINK ABOUT MY LIFE
AND WHAT'S LEFT OF MY HEART.

IN THIS CORNER CHERISHED THINGS
COME TO MY MIND ONCE MORE
THE WAY SHE LAUGHED WHILE LOOKING BACK
AS SHE DANCED THROUGH THE DOOR.

IN THIS CORNER LITTLE THINGS
LOOM LARGE AND GIANTS BE
HOVERING IN THE STILL OF NIGHT
TO TRY AND FRIGHTEN ME.

IN THIS CORNER MEMORIES
STILL COME AND GO LIKE BEAMS
AND I RELIVE THE HAPPY TIMES
WHEN MY HEART BURST AT THE SEAMS. 

IN THIS CORNER I FIND MYSELF
THE MAN I USED TO BE
THE MAN I WAS AND THAT'S COMING FORTH
THE MAN THAT'S TRULY ME.

IN THIS CORNER I BOW MY HEAD
AND THINK ABOUT THE PAST
THE FUTURE HESITANT ON THE HORIZON
AND THE DREAMS THAT LIVE AND LAST.

IN THIS CORNER MY HEART CAN SMILE
EVEN ON THE DARKEST DAYS
AND I CAN GRASP IN MY TWO HANDS
THE JOYS THAT COME MY WAY.

AND WHEN FROM THIS CORNER I TURN AWAY
TO FACE LIFE AND WORLD ONCE MORE
I'LL LAUGH WITH HER AS SHE LOOKS BACK
AND COMES DANCING THROUGH THE DOOR.
