Poem Artwork

~Identity~

In the scheme of things how
can we become a tenet for more
comprehensive, significant tenability
expressive to understand essential
necessity of love for human flourishing

Not limiting the phenomenon to savor,
question or reflect in order to disclose
and articulate the truth of being human
by enabling a greater understanding of
who we are to fit in the enormousty
of it all creating our own space for
the importance of one to be tempered
in reflections relative of here and now
with a calming rhythm from the past
mediating the beauty of the moment

Your words "understand essential necessity of love for human flourishing" may expressa truism but nonetheless fit well with your poem. I agree that reflections on the present are enhanced by a calming rhythm from the past.

a greater understanding of
who we are to fit in the enormousty
of it all

As I get older, I seem to relect on this more and more, and usually out in nature's vast realm somewhere.

We is who we is. But a little self reflection never hurt anybody. Patrick

Deeply thoughtful poetry, Viv.
I've been frustrated with the truth of what is actually inside lately. It seems I learn well in the mind but my heart just refuses any lessons. Do you find this true of yourself too?
Blessings,
Christine

Vivian,

Your expressive words hit a chord in my heart. We are but human and many humans err so often especially in the contex of their words. I have had to look into my own heart to examine the feelings I store within it, to stand back and evaluate my actions to my fellow man/women friends. Fortunately, I have not made many mistakes, but the ones I have made will be mended, hopefully; your thoughts have put me in a frame of mind to mend any fences I may have torn down. A 5 star poem written by a lady who is a deep thinker. Excellent!!

Vivian, This sounds to me like you are questioning how one can love and at the same time become who you are and enjoying everyday...

Your words I sometimes have to read over, for they make me ponder and
search for my own being.

Love your Poetry, Vivian!!

Just being yourself, I guess is another way of putting it.
