Kneeling Down in Time

Knelt down in time, who can say, that life is not forever glowing 

Without doing a full circle inside spaces in their mind

When circumstances do question the proudest man’s sight

On amazing nights, when the full moon is his to find

Can the bottom of your heart get tangled up in winds that stay

Then step inward to wonder why the sky’s not blue

As those thoughts and desires from that one minute past

Softly trickle drop by drop and hold on tight to you

Is this the way it’s always been, just how the deep sea roars

When unexpected words leave nothing but replies

That softly caresses everything you cannot  look upon

Even though you hear it whisper in another’s eyes

Are they never to be thought of, or even touched by our hearts

Without doing full circles inside spaces in our minds

When circumstances question the proudest man’s sight

Will he come untangled, kneeling down in time

Neva,
I always love the way you tie things up so neatly and precise...you have such an art of doing that...repeating just enough to remind us where we've been in your heart and your mind...it's refreshing and beautifully done....all the time...
Another great write....

You definitely have a way with panting images here and I think its fantastic. I also like the philosophical nature of this piece, very profound. Great work.

Very beautiful and peaceful. "Even though you hear it whisper in another’s eyes" love this line. Got the juices flowing XD

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Some deeply philosophical thinking to challenge the mind and soul,,, worthy of many reads to find many meanings.

[Forest Green]

Clinging memories and serendipity, blended with personalities that might or might not understand the significance of a returned moment, or of a reply to a heartfelt question. Interrelationships are oftentimes tested by how deeply one feels about the past and hopes for the future.

Nice poem...well done. Unique and thought provoking.

Love the fluidity in the piece, delicately emotive.
