Leap of Faith

Leap of Faith

A Poem by LeslieNoel

Leap of Faith


I’ve been in this position before-

stood on the knoll

and looked down.


But the view is different,

and yet the same.

The wild fields are more tame;

there are trodden paths.


We have been here before.

It’s all right to reopen the door,

step right on through

and down the mountain

to that dirt road-

familiar and strange.

I love the gentle invitation to take that step again, trusting that even if the journey repeats, there’s something meaningful waiting below. Simple and quietly hopeful.

I wonder if this offering is speaking about a look back at the past. Things seem more calm now, though in many ways they are the same. There is some hesitancy, but generally the speaker feels ok about visiting the bygone days. I would, however, advise against an extended visit.
