“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”
-Roald Dahl
There is magic stirring in the deep places
while sweaty heads sleep
and grown brows furrow
In a twinkling
up is turned down
in is flipped out
And love spills warm and gentle
into the cracks
hewn from worry
For this magic
that is unseen
It has a force
all its own
And no manner of flailing
or gnashing of teeth
No turning away
or arms crossed defiant
Can turn it away
or disfigure its
joy tinged face
with angst and vexing
No, it has come
this magic
And all we must ever do
is hear the whisper
from down deep
that says
I believe.
