[bodytext] => The highway is short, yet it goes on forever I will run out of gas, but that is a petty apprehension There are signs everywhere, but I am blind to them They point out the right direction, but I am lost in a state of oblivion Many miles back, I became stale Which way must I go to be made good again? To my right is the grass It is green and succulent I long to feel the smooth blades fill my mouth with their sweetness It beckons to me, and fills my heart with hope Why is it that the cow can graze upon its tender leaves, and yet I cannot? To my left it is barren Death lingers in the air My nostrils are filled with its stench, and I feel its heavy presence in my lungs It suffocates me My heart screams for living air I breathe in, but nothing can penetrate a substance so thick Where am I now? I am lost and dizzy Ahead I see a truck with a sign that reads, “I will lead you in the right direction� It has been there forever, but now in my dire need I heed its presence With more hopelessness than faith I follow [comments] => 1 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 11 [informant] => hearmyvoice [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

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. ©
