Because of a grain of faith
(so small – it is unseen)
-my eyes flee a grimy past
and rove a majestic landscape
waiting- just for me
I stare in awe
through a window of wonders
as the future is drawn
(in perfect lines and colours)
-almost without flaw

Hope and faith in the future…your grain of faith reminded me of Blake, another great visionary:
“To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.”
