I have no where to go
But in the tranquil motion of time
I am where I have to be

As daylight closes in
There is no task ahead
But in the phlegmatic eyes of nature
I've done what I had to do

As the day swallows the night
I have to find my way
But in the serenity of emotions
I've already reached my destination

As this poem nears an end
I won't start again
But in an artiste's unperturbed creativity
I've written what I had to write [comments] => 2 [counter] => 189 [topic] => 73 [informant] => Vic [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => abstract )
Absurd but true

As darkness approaches
I have no where to go
But in the tranquil motion of time

As daylight closes in
There is no task ahead
But in the phlegmatic eyes of nature

As the day swallows the night
I have to find my way
But in the serenity of emotions
I've already reached my destination

As this poem nears an end
I won't start again
But in an artiste's unperturbed creativity
I've written what I had to write

I once wrote about a Native American man that I saw in Sedona, Arizona and I too felt that while I watched him dance his native spiritual dance and sing his native chants(although for money) and despite the conformity and superficiality of his shopping mall surroundings, that he and I were and are only human beings, being where we were supposed to be. Good or bad or inbetween, we were and are where we're supposed to be.

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. ©
