That the whole of things Are round, To some extent, Time seems to come Cycling in and of itself Centering into a vortex Pulling you through its weave to A future Or a past Its up to you to know To describe The destination If you can But as one looks through gray Substance of silver and blue Seem to shimmer uncontrollably, As so many answers to universal questions Seem to shy away From black Or White, For, were it that simple, God would have left Color behind Would have allowed no choice, And we would not know life For dull ~*~ (from where does she think or speak) ah, from listening, knowing there were reasons, never knowing from whence they first came, but there they are, and how like government to riddle documents with bigotry seeding words into place so that hatred and misunderstandings could occur, when, given choice, and given substance, colors could survive together and thrive, one beside another, as if in a garden planted, where roots could grow deep, and blessings dwell in birdsong nay, do not seed my garden with lies in disguise of good deed, when the cultivator bests himself after having sown words of discontent, and does not stay for harvest for to plant equally, maintaining only as much ground as God intended for each of his creation to live is to know the circle of life… ~*~ That the whole of things Are round, To some extent, Time seems to come Cycling in and of itself Centering into a vortex Pulling you through its weave to A future Or a past Sow your words well, Reap a harvest That His love was meant to bestow. [Thoughts that occurred after watching a PBS documentary on the forming of the FHA after WWII.] |

Good poem. Isn't that what poetry is about, "sowing words to reap a harvest"? Keep sowing! ~El Campeador “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

Karilea, =========== nay, do not seed my garden with lies in disguise of good deed, when the cultivator bests himself after having sown words of discontent, and does not stay for harvest for to plant equally, maintaining only as much ground as God intended for each of his creation to live is to know the circle of life… ~*~ So many good things packed into this write. I love it from start to finish. But mostly what I love is the character it reflects. A woman of integrity and heart.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
