The skies unfolded

Ronald Tirino 1962 (NYC)

The skies unfolded

Mist that clouds the air we breathe
within the skies withholding
and myriads folds enfolding

Endeavors reached for
light within forever now’s
quiet stillness accepts anew
truths unwoven through veils unsealing

Breath its essence sheds
through anxious times its fleeting
in pounding waves receding

Evening descends in cooling breeze
day of night illuminates
in forward paths of life we face
the paths that living makes
