‘Sometimes Not What It Seems’

Lies wrapped within truth...🌹

‘Sometimes Not What It Seems’

Sometimes it’s not
As it seems-

Some untampered dream

Distant thoughts
Serene-

But only
Just a dream-

Never as it
Seemed

The hearts
The only
Queen-

Placing
A
Crown

Upon
That
Distant

Unreachable

Dream-

Don’t let them
Make you believe
It’s what it
Seems-

Don’t get caught
Up in that
Bewitching
Stream -

Set yourself
Free-

There’s a time
For
All-

You’ll see

If it’s a part
Of your
Destiny-

It’s not
Always

What it

Seems.

Loved the rhyme scheme, read it twice and it felt like a mantra. Wonderful writing, I look forward to exploring your work further.

[Travis Gibson (poetic heroics)]

It was a pleasure.

[Adam Adams]

love the tapastery of ur thoughts: "sometimes, it's not what it seems..." very genuine yet effective analogies of monologues fantasy in truth u have come up with. worth reading poetry it is. nicely dripped!

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Thankyou I’m so glad you enjoyed it - 🌹

[danny]

i like that in your works you are always exploring the human condition you must know how to be one with life

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

I’m glad you like it and yes there’s always something to learn and seek- and you shall find- I have travelled many paths in search of the truth and experienced many things in the spirit - the journey of self is a wonderful thing but unto God is all the glory🌹

[danny]

and sometimes - a dream IS just the dream - AS it seems...

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

So true dear Sir- never give up on those dreams - never know where we’ll go with them life is a mysterious journey - just be awake to the things we cannot see , Thankyou for your visit🌹

[sette]

so true kelly that sometimes we cannot understand why is it so easy for people to lie maybe it can be a defense on their part or preventing themselves from getting hurt but still a lie is a lie

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Yes a lies results will hurt more than the truth- but each to their own- I just live and die for the truth always 🌹

[sette]

no matter how hurting it could be but at least it is the truth.

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Amen to that 🌹totally agree🌹

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Kelly you are so natural with your phrasing...rhyme and near rhyme...i always start reading your poems aloud just to get a sense of the wonderful sounds that emerge from your words.
nothing is what it seems and yet everything is as it seems if we look hard enough and long enough.

such wise words you present.

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

And I say cheers to that - it’s all in the looking- wonderful wisdom of yours- Thankyou again for your wonderful words I am glad it brought gladness to your soul🌹

[Wanaka]

This I think is perfect. I feel like it's kind of warning you about reaching to high of goals. The part of Destiny is what made me think of that. Also knowing what you want, doesn't mean you know what it is you truly want in life. "It's not always what it seems,"

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

We all need to be able to have a spirit that can tell right from wrong- we need to listen and learn- then we will know truth- many thanks for your time🌹

My favorite line is “some untampered dream”.

I do like the sentiment. I don’t know if I’m interpreting it correctly but I think it’s always important to look into the “truth” and the things you are told, and see it for yourself, because there could always be hidden lies and truths.

The style of short lines definitly increases its intensity with so much focus on every few words.

I enjoyed reading it.

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Wonderful and I’m glad you enjoyed - you are so right- Thankyou for your time we need to see the truth past and beyond the hazy promises of the searching untested souls 🌹

[Suhd]

Well it's a beautiful song having so beautiful messages. The music and the melody is amazing!

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Thankyou I’m glad you enjoyed it🌹
