Started during a college class where we were watching the Chronicles of Narnia, refined while supposed to be doing homework. I always forget what those books do to me. Always - but I always remember too. You know who Susan and Aslan and Narnia belong to. Copyright to me.


Remembering Aslan

Lion who is never tame –

the part of me

that believes in God,

in salvation,

in something greater

than myself,

and in redemption,

still believes

in you.

I am no Susan

to turn my back

on Narnia,

or to forget the scent

of your mane,

the heavy velvet

of your paws,

the color of your eyes

looking into mine,

and what I see in them.

I will remember you

when stars are falling,

and follow you

further in

and higher up.
