Long, Sought After Feeling

by communicatingcreatively, posted in Poetry

That long sought after feeling
Drifts right on to

My infinite consciousness
And hangs onto

My mind is inviting
That feeling to stay

Otherwise that feeling
Would simply, drift away

Experiencing this feeling
Sets my mind alive

Gives me new hope
Taking life in my stride

As I set forth into the future
Carrying that feeling with glee

The future is bright
For I can be me!

And I Know That I Will

by communicatingcreatively, posted in Poetry

I sit and I watch the day unfolding
Shadows creep in, shadows creep out
The Sun dances across the sky
Partnering with clouds as we watch the day go by

As I sit and I wonder
What the day will bring
With each passing hour
No more than a shower

The day goes on
The light changes hourly
I sit and watch the day unfold
A promise of more I surely am told

I dream and I dream
I watch and I listen
The day speaks to me
And I listen intently

The message is clear
How could I have not seen it?
It was there all along
Was my mind distracted?

I begin to understand
And try not to question
What life was telling me
Again and again

All along it has been saying
What I should do
Had I have not been listening
I would’ve missed it today too

The Sun it goes down
Beyond the hill
The path is clear
And I know that I will

This is the first poem I had ever written & was originally published on my ‘Observations & Other Writings’ blog in August 2013.
