Jane R Callanan's Inspirational Poetry
Janie's Hope
As the moon reflects the sun Do you see the intensity of your love Reflecting back from my face? When you fix your eyes on mine Do you see the jewels of a king Bestowed upon one so ordinary? That one as colorless as a servant Could be made to overtake The brilliance of the genteel! What can be restored to you Beyond the reflection of your heart Which has made me transfigured? Is to love you, alone Enough laurel for your brow To enchant your heart and grace? Jane R Callanan A Cry For Goodness If I could bend to Love, Though now uncertain of my fate, Eternally cursing my freedom, Would you afterward not veil me in dishonor? To stand in the brightness And give evidence of your loving This veil keeps beyond my reach A reverance bestowed upon another. My soul stands longing To merge with the one whose shadow, The one whose every breath, Keeps me entombed in disgrace. I do not desire that I should continue So hungry to be fed, by your grace; Accepting another's cast off rinds Given from your first fruits. Say I again and again: If I could bend to Love, Eternally cursing my freedom, Would you afterward not veil me in dishonor? Jane Callanan For Nicole There was a child Who strolled with me Though long ago In sun and light ?Till Seraphs came To claim her hand And change my day Into my night. While in the mirror Oft I gaze To see her face Overlaid mine. And on my knees At night I hold Her memory, Her glint to shine. And still I hear (Within my soul) The anguished weep Of child alone. The one who waits And never grows Until the day I must go home. |
