                                       The Poetry of Joni Kaye Behrens    

                           

                             

 

Water Misting

Water misting on my face

Baptismal of blessings

You bestow upon me

How gracious you are

Sanctifying energy

Flowing in every crevice of my being

Both human and spiritual

I gather from you strength to understand

The places I have visited

In dreamtime

Real time

Are not lost

Energizing forces filter from you

Auras light

Even in darkness

Solidify the spirit

Hardness against evil forces

Perhaps the thoughts of unyielding war

Will continue

Knowing I can receive the help

From you. through the animals

Your earth,

Your time

Transcends the ultimate

Continuous voyage

Visions

You have given fill me to

Absoluteness of foresight

I know what to do

I care about doing

Misty waters flow through me

With tidal waves

You showed me

The tides

The earthly world

But the spiritual tides drone past bends

Like the willows…
