Array ( [sid] => 181040 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Fathoming where I am [time] => 2015-04-22 13:28:32 [hometext] => A reflection on overpowering nature of our mind and heart, which are one and the same (or not?), on our perception of our self. [bodytext] => Witnessing the duet of my heart and mind,
Unsure of lines that separates the two,
I stand here fathoming where I am!

Amused by the foolish deeds of my heart,
Shivered by the devious ways of my mind,
I stand here fathoming where I am!

As one must ride and learn horse
And stay as the master of the animal,

As one must ride to his destination
And not be too indulged in the riding,

And so when riding my mind and my heart
when they overwhelm the me within,

I unmount the horse time to time
As I did just now and therefore
I stand here fathoming where I am!

Fathoming where I am

Witnessing the duet of my heart and mind,
Unsure of lines that separates the two,
I stand here fathoming where I am!

Amused by the foolish deeds of my heart,
Shivered by the devious ways of my mind,
I stand here fathoming where I am!

As one must ride and learn horse
And stay as the master of the animal,

As one must ride to his destination
And not be too indulged in the riding,

And so when riding my mind and my heart
when they overwhelm the me within,

I unmount the horse time to time
As I did just now and therefore
I stand here fathoming where I am!

Nice easy rocking gait on this one..reminds me of a show tune lyric: "Stop the world, I want to get off".
Your lyric has a pleasant daydreamy swing, drawing us along your journey and folding in a lesson for coping with the overwhelming stuff of life, long before we realize it!
Well done, omnisci. Enjoyed this very much!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
