Hovering just below the hillside
awash in a brilliant glow
stood a lady dressed in blue
with roses and thorns around her feet.
She smiled and offered her hands
palms upward, fingers slightly curled
I reached out for her
overwhelmed with love.
Her warm touch like a deep massage
moved up my arms and over my shoulders
down my back all the way to my toes
“Peace be with you,”
was all she said.
I bowed my head and wept
like a little child
who found her mother
after being lost
for too many hours.
When I opened
my eyes
she was gone
I was left
feeling calm
like I haven’t felt
for a long while.
