Miracle Woven in Myth
Miracle Woven in Myth
When the night was nailed to a starless sky,
and silence drank the songs of men,
a whisper rose from ruined dust—
soft as prayer, sharp as destiny.
They said the world had ended there,
where broken temples kissed the sand,
but even ashes hide an ember,
even deserts dream of rain.
Then came a footstep none could name—
not thunder, yet the mountains bowed;
not wind, yet oceans bent their backs;
not fire, yet darkness fled in fear.
Was it the hand of Phoenix lifting flame from death?
Was it Pegasus striking springs from barren stone?
Was it old Atlas shifting sorrow from his shoulders?
Or Medusa weeping tears that turned to pearls?
No—
it was simpler, grander, deeper still.
A mother smiling through famine.
A child planting seeds in shattered earth.
A blind man laughing at sunrise warmth.
A heart forgiving what swords could not.
For miracles do not always roar.
They bloom where logic leaves in shame.
They wear no crown, demand no trumpet,
yet kingdoms rise beneath their breath.
So if your sky is cracked tonight,
if hope lies buried under grief,
remember myths were born from hunger—
but miracles are born from belief.
