When Sky Falls
When sky falls come as questions;
Nay! As an answer to all questions…
When what falls in front of you - is you.
Will you bother to stop long enough to look and see;
Will you care enough to understand the risk?
Will you do what is needed regardless of detours
Regardless of cost; regardless of pain?
And will you accept that death may not wait
And yet, remain hopeful that life will continue
With or without your heart and your kindness?
If a nest or a nettle should befall
upon your path;
Or upon your crazy head?
Will you save it and yourself - just the same;
From the trial; the trail; the journey; the chore; the pain?
Will you answer the rains;
Will you stand against the winds
When the heavens call your name
And invite you in?
The answer just fell from the sky.
