From afar I watch my life
Or that which was intended
A measure of creation
Shy of a destination
Second string
Unsung the sting of purpose
Vexed my heart
Fallow field without a yield
My passion play without a part
Potential put on hold
Where all my preparations cold
Comes to a negation
Send, O’ send as you intend
To bless my end
Warming the bench
This blog is dedicated to offering daily verse--a thought to contemplate throughout the day and enrich the inner life. Poetry reaches into the heart in ineffable ways. Similar to music which speaks below the horizon of conscious thought, poetry represents the first shards of dawning. The splintered light that cracks the heavens to illuminate reality. Rhythm, rhyme, and reason dancing. Words, whispers, and wonderment flashing. Images, impression, and intellect converging. Such is the language of enlightened prose, and the oracle through which it pollinates the mind.
