ABBY_Sonnet-1-Small

The future in her eyes, I see delight
for coming mysteries with atlases
and paths untold, her mind by love set right
has all the mighty gods and goddesses
attuned to bring about the best, a world
we need not fear, a secret smile so dear—
and she is not alone, this blue-eyed girl
in seeing daily miracles appear.
We are awash in growing muses if
we would but look beyond our misery;
the news we feed each other can uplift
or not, the choice for joy or gravity
in every moment shines, and hers is clear:
for love it is that we are gathered here.
