POSSIBLE

constraint and cages
barriers of birth and being
prisons of place and person
trapped in time and texture.

but

pushing into a power
that seems so broad and free
striving to enter a great expanse
of possibility

striving, at last, to be

A strong statement of your uniqueness as an individual, a journey that all young people travel on. Like your style hope to see more of your poems.

Wonderful! You are unique and He loves you just the way you are! Ellie

I like this style, and you've written powerfully.

I like the contrast of being constrained to striving to be free in expanse.

I know not what the future holds,
but I know Who holds the future.

I don't question YOUR existance - GOD

Perhaps one of our greatest discoveries is finding ourselves for what we really are. I enjoyed this.

robin-shep,

Your poem is beautifully written.....
For me it reminds me of my daily struggles to be more like Him,
the Great I Am. Bob <><
