[bodytext] => A little boy sits alone, with a world before him to explore soon this boy grows up, not that same little boy as before when reaching adulthood, feeding his curiosity becomes his goal but he has not yet learned, true wisdom to maintain that control Now a young teenager in a crowd, he senses he’s different and feels sad so he inquires of others, and is given answers that to him just don't add not long after this young man marries, happy and with a family of his own he becomes overwhelmed with this depression, and feels like he is all alone The challenges of marriage were too much, on him taking their toll reaching that point many of us get to, he begins searching his soul in time a transformation takes place, a degree of serenity he finds his life slowly becomes focused, confidence and belief now shines How many of us at one time or another, fall into this melancholy and start to wonder is it possible that we were so deaf and blind, unaffected even from the noise of thunder all our lives heaven sent us those messages and signs, to wake us from this our slumber yet we chose to satisfy our materialistic desires, priorities on our list, each with a number Skeptics and scoffers evade the logic of their folly, ignoring the truth hidden from within unwilling to change their ways, acknowledging this truth means having to admit their sin they err lacking the knowledge, G-d does not treat us severely when we repent while alive but if we fail to mend our ways, love and forgiveness, for ourselves alone do we deprive I learned this lesson myself many years ago, praying for direction from the One above never again to put my faith in man, I was rewarded with the wisdom of truth my true love wisdom is within the reach of all, patiently awaiting those willing to drink and draw near with but one condition which all must follow, to acquire true wisdom, sin you must fear Where there is fear of sin, there is enlightenment, and wisdom has a place to call home without fear you cannot control yourself, unhindered, your evil inclination is free to roam your hopes and desires they can really be achieved, but remember to always remain true that road to ultimate happiness, is to acquire that wisdom, a gift understood by so few [comments] => 1 [counter] => 143 [topic] => 19 [informant] => 2bpositive [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )

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. ©
