Why Should I Care?A Poem by Kathy Van KurinJust as this home made fire pit is cracked from repeated cold and heat but still holds heat and welcoming light of it's blazing fire we hold our own precious lives within; our own living soul's fire.Why should I care? Why should I care? But I do.
Minutes are passing. I remain in this body, my living soul’s shell. Within this human house, a lantern is burning. This life, my story book of feeble days- is ageing before my very eyes. But my soul’s essence is a vibrating inner living fire. Days within Inner vision- observing past to present, Streaming always onward as future becomes real. Past memories fade, into once shining days of life, once as real as today. Life exists- in past, present and future, like a circular ring of memories. Even within the pain of past regrets over poor choices- stupid mistakes: What to do? This shadow’s path, sometimes a mystery does not need to be permanent. For, it is in the trip of moments, within minutes that lessons may be gained. Moving, always moving; our day’s landscape transforms within process.
We change, we grow, we mature; even in the sometimes dark places of our own making. Where are the colors? Even darkness holds color But only the Son’s power Brings sparkles of understanding - And every hue’s sense of meaning. © 2017 Kathy Van KurinFeatured Review
