-- What I See –

John Herlihy

 

 

Do let me tell you what I see,

My visions lead far beyond me.

Deep down who can truly tell,

Final depths to this endless well.

I only seek that the truth be told,

Certainties that I can firmly hold.

As destiny unfolds, it feels right,

The way clear, destination in sight.

I see in the distance a horizon there,

Heaven and earth whisper a prayer.

Why worry if you do what is right,

Keep your purpose firmly in sight.

Never give up hope, never despair,

Beauty, bliss, blessing be my prayer.

THERE IS DEFINITELY MYSTERY IN MUCH OF WHAT WE SEE AND EVEN MORE...IN WHAT WE DON'T SEE. BUT, ALAS...THE FOUR LAST LINES, FOR ME, IS THE BEAUTIFUL KEY, INDEED. WONDERFUL RHYME SCHEME AND STYLE, ENJOYED. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS
