A Healthy Serving Somehow I think that I should be much stronger Weave the willow with the oak in patience longer Wrap the vine around and through in slip knot fashion Quiet down the inner drives of rampant passion Yet in the truth there is not benefit or pittance Step up to this karmic scheme or plead indifference Whether is or not to come may feed the forces Yet for now I simply watch these destined courses Not yet succumbed or given up the inner stillness The pace is set by something larger in its brilliance Somehow I think the bottom of a dream is found-less Though I should know the plead of dreams is boundless It makes me smile to think the road has turned in circles Where dawn and dusk just look the same in pinks and purples But then again it is the wind that carries something And sweeps away remains of day and leaves with nothing Somehow I think that just to drink the wine of living Should be enough to fill the cups in all forgiving Somehow I think that I should hold again to small things And wait the tide, a wave to ride, and see what that brings Copyright Kkh 01/01/04 |

K. the entire poem is a piece of art...but these last lines speak volumes... Somehow I think that I should hold again to small things And wait the tide, a wave to ride, and see what that brings This, is what we all should do in life, in love...in our destinies. |

I totally agree with the above post. I love this poem. I love it, I love it. The last lines are just a wonderful ending, to what I had hoped wouldn't end! |

Your poetry is so smooth it seems to just flow along. It sounds like soft soothing music, without music. Hugs Ethel |
