Today, I'm sharing a poem I wrote in High School--there is some value in contemplating it's rhymes
Simple Things
[truth unleashed]
A
Rose is more red than I
When
I attempted three thousand cantos in a day.
Today
I pause,
For
pausing may cause something to happen.
Realigning
my focus means
Redefining
my life and mind.
Making
a choice sometimes
Means
raising my voice.
Living
in sin
Is
like dying again.
Once
was I born
And
once shall I die.
A
waterfall’s water is beautiful,
But
if I fall in, I get wetter than it.
A
blue ocean
Once
drew a picture new.
Once
in my life I wish to see
The
Creator who made me and makes you.
O
the simple things
They
make me pause and they bring . . . . thought and laughter.
