DESTINY WHISPERS I know that tears have stung your eyes… Many times along your way Compassions kisses did not taste them… Flowing rivers of pain ~ without navigation ~ White water’s of emotion unleashed Beneath the eyes of the universe That watched helplessly In the bondage of destiny’s restraints. Clouds of uncertainty filter sunlight… Slowly fading the colors of dreams rainbows That kept the heartbeat of the soul alive. Every sunset entertains the challenge Of waltzes with shadows and their kisses Of broken promises, and an emptiness that Aches so deeply inside… Sleep beckons you to dream again… On satin sheets of promises… So tender and soothing ~ Winds that dance upon the oceans And lifted them to the skies as the breath of the Universe found them reaching in caps of white Rushing for the shores of redemption… Blows gracefully through the windows of my soul ~ Kisses the pain away so tenderly ~ And Destiny Whispers…. Your time has come now… Take my hand and fly with me Beyond the missing pieces to the puzzles of life Beyond the uncertainty of truth… Beyond the shadows of yesterday… Into embraces of forever ~ Kisses of eternity ~ And love that sails upon the oceans of time Without fear of the storms that await… Within winds that dance upon the oceans And lift them to the skies as the breath of the Universe find them reaching in caps of white Rushing for the shores of redemption… Blowing gracefully through the windows of the soul…. And….destiny whispers….. |

Destiny whispers..the thought alone in these two words is so thought provoking. A wonderful poem Martha, I so enjoyed this one. Kate Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. T S Eliot |

Slowly fading the colors of dreams rainbows That kept the heartbeat of the soul alive. Oh yes...this is beautiful and oh so true...and I think timing is everything! Best to catch destiny while she whispers, instead of making her have to shout! Welcome to Passions (I'm always late) but I enjoyed reading your work and look forward to more. |

Someone yell when you post a poem will they? Sheesh I almost missed another one! I need a skateboard to keep up with this board. Another wonderful piece Martha, and you know me, destiny whispers and I run! Beautiful poem, absolutely beautiful. ~*~A poet is someone who reads more than they write ~*~ |
