The Portal

Certainly a door has been opened

It is opportunity knocking

A long suffering God

Said my time of education has ended

So many questions had I

Based on all of my experiences

But all that rumination had to stop

I had to step out on the strut

The wind was like a hurricane

I hung on the edge as long as I could

It’s time to jump

Or to go back in the plane

Over time decisions come quicker

Experience makes it easier

The time between the happenings

And the choice of what to do with them

Have greatly diminished for me

Time is of the essence

As shocking as the options are

I have no time to waste

So should I jump back in

Or jump off the edge again

So many lives are in the balance

Fear sounds alarms day and night

Many musings and ponderings later

I have educated myself through my memories

And I know this

There is no going back

To the way things were before

I have shifted

I have grown

Like Alice in Wonderland

Too big to go back through

The door I came through

Once I truly know I cannot go back

I jump

No looking back

There are pathways that connect us

Heaven to earth

So few find the portals that go between

It’s a process of trust

A yielding of my will

Accepting the plan

Specially made just for me

I’ve been stretched so thin

Only a membrane left between me

And the rushing water

Threatening to take me away

But I have prevailed

Each stage a beginning

Then the opening appears

The exit light blazing

I rush to the door to escape

One state of being for another

For adversity has strengthened me

I reach for the door and it opens

Welcoming me inside

It is safe in this new realm

The door is shut tight behind me

Protecting me from what lies behind me

The nurses put salve on my wounds

I am given a warm bed in front of a fireplace

I am naked and clothed in a blanket of fur

I am recharging and renewing

I shall dance in the moonlight tonight

I am still weak, but I feel strength arising within

A newfound freedom

The light in me is rising

Soon it will shine bright

And I will join the many who have come before me

And we shall bring healing and light and love

To the wounded warriors ready for release

And we shall take back our city

With all her inhabitants

And darkness will flee before us

For we are followers of the one

Who led us out of the darkness

And into the light
