THE JOURNEY

 
 
 

I reach for it.

I close my fingers.

But I can’t catch it.

It filters through.

Continuing on its journey.

Nothing can stop it.

Nothing can hold it.

I feel the same way about time (your "journey"). Often, it is as though I can feel time blowing by like a breeze. I wish it would slow down a little. Nicely done with few words, Susanne. Love and best wishes,

Regis

Light, traveling at 186,000 miles per hour, is a bit too fast even to grasp. Poet tackles physics… And wins?

I see this as symbolic of many things. An Interesting short poem, reflective.

Life had a silver thread hanging from the basket of heaven.
So delicate yet so strong. If we reach for it with material hands
it slips through our fingers, if we reach for it with our hearts, we succeed. I have enjoyed your poem dear Susanne, may the angels be with you, upon your wake and upon your sleeping head. Hugs

Nothing can stop our journey walking toward the light from above. This journey can only be walked on patiently. It cannot be grasp upon.

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
