Here’s
another sample of the thoughts that tumble around in my head. Sitting on my back patio this morning, I
created and jotted this down in about five minutes. I hope you enjoy….
The
things we think we want…aren’t.
Time
slips by like grains of sand
Through
the constricted neck of an hourglass.
Life
accelerates
Feelings
slow
Like
the last beats of a heart
Barely
intelligible.
Realities
close in
Oppressive
in their totality.
Joys
provide brief respites
During
which we regain our breath.
Scrambling
this way and that,
We
attempt the improbable
To
get ahead….
Maintain….
Just
get by….
Chasing
our dreams
Doesn’t
yield what we hoped it might.
So
much time spent
Though
not wasted.
Knowledge
has been gained
Deep
insight as to who we are.
And
finally we understand
The
things we thought we wanted…weren’t.
Our
aim now true,
We
set our focus
On
those things we need…not want.
