And I smile ...

Blindly, I stumbled.

Fear, an ashen cloud suffocating my soul.

I reach out, groping searching, yearning, for a foothold.

A velvet touch, against my hand, and light infuses my being.

A dolphin.

All fear banished, by a single caress, and joy rings in my heart.

A second touch, not physical, but in my soul I feel.

And all I hear
in the winter storm, is the voices calling from the waves.

Saying, crying,"Spring is near, Life must always follow."

And I smile,

and I cry,

for I found my saviour.

A dolphin.
