"Life IS a kaleidoscope..."

Inspired by another poet's words, thank you Chris.

"Life IS a kaleidoscope of uncontrolled moments cascading across our consciousness..."

As I stumbled about in your words 

   I knew you were onto something

    no wonder I'm always dizzy 

              and my mind in a tizzy

I sigh'd in the knowledge

      I'm not the only one that gets caught up,

in my thoughts being all jumbled & fractured

   it's the same difference

        no matter who you are

we're all twinkling stars

    in our own little universe

ever shifting in our perception 

     and altered pattern views

        wishing to connect

   on some deeper level within the bigger picture,

   the vivacity of colors in our world,

               that we so aptly call  *life*

Thanks Glen, you're repeating yourself. :-)

[Glen Yumang Manese]

You're welcome...

That is true we do get tangled in our thoughts when writing and we have to figure it out so
others know what we are talking about although is still left to many interpretations...we will never figure
out life...just one day at a time...Rose:)

[Frieda P]

One day at a time, sometimes one minute, thanks Rose :-)

Kaleidoscope...an apt word to associate with LIFE!

I often get lost in your lines, Frieda. There are just so much wisdom to unravel, I can hardly keep up.. I read this poem thrice just to make sure I quite understand. :D

Well-penned. No surprises there. :)

[Frieda P]

Wow you blew me away with this one Blue, thanks so much! :-)

[Horizon K.]

Oh nice... That opening quote is definitely a mind spinning thought and pulled me right in and along with you on this little poetic introspective journey. Perception and perspective are two of my absolute favorite themes to write on, and I'm always questioning my own mercurial though patterns... How there are certain things I am so so solid on and for others I can never find solid ground even though I am consumed by that question every day! Very clever piece Frieda... I totally dug the thought line and just so well penned!!!

[Frieda P]

Yes, leave it to Chris to start the wheels rolling, thanks so much Horizon!

[Tai Ryens]

A kaleidoscope used as a metaphor to symbolize different perspectives all glancing at the same object; various thoughts revolving around once concept that differ in appearance, yet remain, to the essence, alike. Well done.

[Frieda P]

Grazie mille Tai.

[Angel]

Ha! What amazing imagery...kaleidoscope colors, tumbling around, making many colored patterns...fantastic!
Of course, a kaleidoscope would be useless, without a Source of Light....

[Frieda P]

You make me smile Angel angel. ;-)

[Angel]

Then I must be doing something right!

[Frieda P]

I concur. :-)

We are parts of a whole aren't we; it's finding our way there that is difficult. You speak of the cosmic journey we're all on. I like this philosophical piece from you.

[Frieda P]

Thanks Anne, jazzed you enjoyed, yes 'finding our way' is always the hardest part...

[Ruth]

Oh hon...yes, I so do understand this...what are we like ey? lol Always wrapped up in that something that offers liberation but dare we step into it? Hmm....only time can tell...love this xx

[Frieda P]

Wow you said a mouthful there Poppy! Thanks so much my friend xo

[Ruth]

lol Welcome lovely xox

[Robbie~xoxo~]

It's a wonder how we connect... the "Kaleidoscope" is a grand sea of stars, so many thriving on each other's light. There is hope for peace yet...

A wonderfully penned write, Friedalicious!~xoxo~:)

[Frieda P]

Hope for peace, sounds like a plan Robbie! Thanks my sweet friend. xo ;-)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

we're all hues that color the world with our presence and our words...all stars who hope not to burn out too soon.

[Frieda P]

Hopefully not, thanks jacob.

"we're all twinkling stars
in our own little universe
ever shifting in our perception
and altered pattern views
wishing to connect'
I like the description above. Each of us with different views and thoughts trying to find our proper place. Thank you for the outstanding poetry.
