The Dream of Wild Wonder

by Jill Eisnaugle — Read all 611 poems by Jill Eisnaugle

I recently entered a free form poetry contest for poems of a spiritual nature. While non-rhyming poetry is FAR from my strong suit, I thought I'd give it a shot. This is my lame effort for your critiques or enjoyment.

Friday, April 9, 2010

 

I walked among the clouds that night
Adrift in wild wonder
A light ahead had caught my eye
I wondered what could be
I strolled, surrounded by the stars
Passed by the crows and herons
As the bright beam of light drew near
My heart began to pound
 
I'd dreamed of such, a thousand times
A day of wild wonder
Where stars shone brightly 'cross the sky
And moonglow streamed like tears
Yet, never in my grandest dreams
Had such beauty been present
That figment from my yesterdays
Returned within my view
 
Across the azure hints of hope
The wild wonder neared
I smiled and hedged, as I drew close
Unsure of what I'd find
But, when I reached the beam of light
My heart was whole once more
When Mother came and took my hand
And led me to her Home

It can only be heaven. I love the hope that runs through it, as well as the sheer joy in your surroundings. There is amazement and a bit of trepidation, but the ruling theme is the "wild wonder" of it all.
(I would probably have a left straight border instead of being centered. Just my preference, and I am usually a Rhymer as well)
Love,
Connie

Lovely sentiments in this very fine crafted writing. I think YOU did an excellent job on this non-rhyme poem. You are one of the very best rhyming poets I have ever read.

GOD BLESS YOU
