Destiny’s Route” (poem) by Tinka Boukes on AuthorsDen

"Destiny’s Route”

Destiny now on route 911

Emotional are the roller coaster ride

Slowly causing havoc deep within

Tears dripping…have hollowed out my soul

Imprisoned by thoughts of thunder

Nudges and grudges of timeless watches

Yesterday’s heartache not forgotten

Sunrays of hope keeps shining down

Relentless those turmoil ’d hours of darkness

Overcast eyes tells the story of her life

Under a moonlit sky so bright

Temptations came upon destiny’s route

Ending fatefully…upon route 911

A deeply engaging drama of hope wrestling with despair. Love the "Route 911" metaphor--brilliant.

Well done dear Tinka.
Your heart shows through each line.

"Nudges and grudges of timeless watches"
"Sunrays of hope keeps shining down"

And when you think that all is lost,
Just wish upon the Southern Cross.

Lines from songs of our time <>In memory of 911..."IN AND AROUND THE LAKE MOUNTAINS COME OUT OF THE SKY AND THEY STAND-THERE-------YOU MAY SAY I'M A DREAMER BUT I'M NOT THE ONLY-ONE-------THERE'S AN OLD MAN SITTING NEXT TO ME MAKING LOVE TO HIS TONIC & GIN-------THESE DAYS I SEEM TO THINK ALOT ABOUT THE THINGS THAT I FORGOT TO DO FOR YOU-------YESTERDAY ALL MY TROUBLES SEEM SO FAR AWAY-------BUT THIS TIME COULD MEAN GOODBYE-------IN THE MORNING WHEN I RISE- BRINGS A TEAR & JOY TO MY EYES-------I GET BY WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS-------BUT I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT I'D SEE YOU AGAIN"
