Destiny

A short poem about longing to find your place in the grand scheme of things...

I see opportunity,

like a dim star

in the dark night sky

and I want to seize it

I want to take a cosmic

breath

and see with absolute clarity

my place, in the chaos 

Heavenly commands

that can't be erased

by human hands

Let me follow that diktat,

Let me obey 

Destiny

I liked this piece very much. You said so much through your poem that I don't have to say anything more. Good job!

Like waiting for a voice in the quiet to assure us we're going in the right direction. That star is elusive, that's for sure.

Nicely put. We all want to seize the best thing in front of us. Thanks for sharing.

this is so inspiring to seize all the opportunities we get and to not pass them by, 'a dim star' that may one day become one of the brightest
