Setting Aside Reason For A Time To FallA Poem by Keith Allen CovellDon't take this life for granted. Learn from your mistakes. Teach others to be kind and true to themselves and others.
I can feel it
The pull of the energetic mystery The calling forth of the intricate complexities I am the sea, the stone, the breeze I am you and you are me In God, all of us resides And He sees us equally Why should you see it any differently? Of course I don't agree with sin I live in it but without the shame to keep down in it Isn't it enough to be swimming in it? Catch my breathe each time for just a little bit Torn at each ligament I swell to meet my wants and forget again The one, most important part To stay humble I got to keep selfless, genuine I got to keep pouring my heart out to those that need it then Even to those that bleed my spirit Crush and trampling Trampoline, bouncing Through the air and back to earth Not literally So no soft landing Not at all! Remember your hurt when you get back to me The rock is hard at your ankle and unforgiving And it is because you don't forgive yourself After the fall You failed to see your fault before the catalyst The great temptation that firstly put you in this predicament Even as you had already known But that's another story all it's own I have suffered myself the same repetition Like the seasons change and freewill intention Choice to change with season or without Or against Choices that learn us Mistakes that churn us Follow a heart and a mind given to us by the Divine All life given to us by All of everything submitted at our feet, so fine We pick up and use and sometimes abuse Take advantage and peruse Setting aside reason for a time to fall But to get back up again and persevere is God's face The Glory shining through the chase The crash being the example of defeat, as a product of freewill The recovery of one's spiritual prowess The extension of wisdom and understanding Products of that same freewill The beauty in the havoc of the storm The greatness of the Lord as He gives me choice and chance to persevere, push through any obstacle Joy results in knowing that I have overcome My Living Creator wants me to experience this Home I am filled with revelation that I am part of something great It is breathing all around me I am deeply thankful -Keith Allen Covell © 2019 Keith Allen CovellAuthor's Note
