The rebuilding of a broken life


 

Loving Flame


 

I look upon my life now

The shattered fragments

of a tinted mirror

Distorted

and broken

Seeing in it

sharp shards of pain

Watching

Those tears of grief,

Times where I was

bordering on insane

And seeing… 

only one warm light

in that stygian corridor

Leading me

inexorably onwards

Holding me gently

Guiding me step by step

Never tiring

Always inspiring

Step by step

by painful step…


 

Flickering,

at some point

it started to burn

and brightly blaze

And then…

in a defiant burst

of fire

seared me

with His loving flame

I believe I am going to picket AD!
How could my tracker not have notified me, AGAIN,
about this exceptionally beautiful piece of work?
The graphic is awessome, too. Please excuse my use
of that word, over and over, but it seems to be
the most accurate one to convey my thoughts about
your marvelous poetry.

Chanti, one can only sit back and marvel in absolute amazement at the comprehensive depths at which you can easily penetrate my friend. Your intelligent poetry and benevolent soul shatters the illusions and helps guide your many readers and admires through the quagmire of life knowing one is not alone. For without a helping hand many will flounder within the abyss. Thank you for sharing your remarkable revered compositions. Take care and be well.

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
