Seasoned

 

Sometimes,

 Time will encase those things that will never change.

As clouds expand to spread their tears,

So the sun can bring fourth another day.

I've reminisce these days like a stillborn seed,

So it won't, ever grow.

Only to find when night falls,

All that’s left,

Is for me to rest my soul.

 

Oceans waves’ crash against the cliffs,

While the moonlight breaks through the mist.

I toss and turn a dreary me, awoke, from a dream of a sweet less night.

Now that the fog has settled, should I ponder what lies in wait?

Or place my life and trust in God, as my guiding light.

 

Many trees stand stern from the gust of mighty winds.

Rivers flow down stream upon arriving to an open sea.

As eagles soar through the vast sky in abundant air.

These are the things

The Lord has placed

Around me.

 

Just as the stars above are light years away.

I am no more near to thee,

 so I pray.

I marvel at what lies before me.

As a gift of life,

for all to see.

Amen

this really improved my mood thanks for this

[The Analog Kid]

Very spiritual, introspective write, brother. I feel the nature, the mortality of a man and his contemplation of both.

[D. Pesek]

This is really good! Reading this poem just calms me. When I close my eyes, I can see a perfect image of what you're describing. This one is definitely going into my favorites library!

[Desert Dreamer]

So many marvels to see in this world, all we have to do is look around us. Beautiful.

[Ron]

I think the last two verses of this poem are some of the strongest I have read. The whole work seems to have the rythmn of footsteps. Time on the road has distilled this work and the last two paragraphs are sweet liquer indeed!

[joe shmo]

this is awesome. It reminds me of this precious gift God gave us to enjoy life to the fullest!

[YouoweYoupay]

The imagery, sounds, and nature described in this write are serene, the wondering, hesitating, and hoping are spontanious. All prayers, even the briefest, are forms of healthy and spiritual connections to Our Creator. Thanks for sharing. Keep it up.

[Bodhisattva]

It is amazing I love it. It felt to me as I read it that I was heading somewhere really far and beautiful. Love the way you wrote this and is an elegant piece. Great work once again Mauricio!
