Array ( [sid] => 182678 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Clarity [time] => 2016-02-27 22:42:36 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Life is a visitor,

a presenting platter of oddity,

But some is sought, instinctively sought,

God/'/s cold announcement of life recognised

In facial relief of knowing life giving breath.

A moment of sighs, of gratitude that some

Moments in this life are known among the

Miriads of shifting truths,

Breath,

my breath and Gods entwined in

Understanding.

So little to understand?

So much to confuse!

We are still the grit in Nature/'/s eye that if

Blinked into the abyss this earth would

Smile.

So where does this leave my purpose?

On the back door step of inconsequentiality.

to be resoundingly clear
the inconsequential clairvoyant
was a fallen tree in the wilderness
that fell and was heard
by only the animals who lived
near it
And when it fell it changed only
them
And to them there was no question
that it did or as to why
it was a sound that they heard
the old lady would hunt in the forest
to find and paint scenes like
this; at day break with
perfect clarity of light
She would be clear
Nature she would call
it

Peace!

You. my dear, will never be inconsequential!!!

But this does indeed (to me) say how fragile life is and how it could be extinguished in a blink of an eye.

Thank you the ever talented, Anna!

I share Tim/'/s thoughts as well.
Lovely...

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. ©
