LOOK “Look” and I saw no shape, form, design, or distinguishing lines to say this is life but rectangles and squares solid and staid like wood before carved and put on display. Thunder and lightening and storms of change destroy downward slides into pits of dismay for made by a master each treasure must rise and in wonder embrace the stages of life. As the wind of defeat seeps under the door we recall and remember the start of it all and see at our feet the remnants of dreams slowly transform into what still can be. Arise and we do to the power of one as a spirit is drawn into realms of true love and we begin again on the journey of soul that may never take us out of our homes. It’s within that we grow and change today for the challenge of life lies after the grave where rectangles and squares are made out of air and all we are now follows us there. “Look” and I see the uniqueness of me imprinted with all I am privileged to feel and when I am there with squares in the air know it’s not wind that rustles your hair!

Am puzzled as to why this only has two responses... This is a thought provoking, wonderful piece...  "sit on top of the world and tell me how you feel...'cause what you feel is what I feel for you.." |

Hi, Margherita, icebox and Susan. Thank you for your responses. I think the majority of people look but never see although surprisingly enough I am encountering it more these days. And Susan, I come from a country where internet access is extremely expensive and this prevents me from replying to the posts of others. It would then naturally follow that they wouldn't respond to mine because life is, after all, about give and take. One day when I'm rich ....!!! |

Helen '“Look” and I see the uniqueness of me" I do, and you are! It's always a priviledge to read your poetry. |
