Pausing

Pausing between lines

For a meaning of words.

Such is the gaunlet

A poet must face.

 

There are hills easily climbed,

And views of beauty seen.

But yet you wonder

Of the mountain far off.

 

And as you reach its peak,

You see naught but clouds.

The beauty below you,

Is lost from your sight.

 

The mountain you stood on,

For a view just imagined.

Left you for a longing

Of the hill easily climbed.

Ah, the gauntlet is thrown to each of us for untold reasons, challenges, tests of faith, friendship - we stand George, always on the precipice of decisions and paths forward - I wish you love and peace my dear friend - Jon Michael

We all pause and you write it very well George
We all climb and naught see the clouds as we
do not see the forest for the trees

Wonderful George

Love and Light

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

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.
