Poem Artwork


We sit in our comfort clothes
grounded by complacency

Drugged by the stagnant air of trivia

We forget our dreams as we allow
the illusions of multimedia to
mesmerize and keep us ill-informed

We accept their version of being
unable to help a sick world so we 
give up trying

In the meantime~~~

There is fresh air waiting when you
climb the mountain of hope, and
leave the valley of despair behind

There are renewing winds that blow
from the virgin snows of the alpine summits

Leave the musty memories of
minutia behind, the anxiety
of fears and failures

Take a deep breath, and let your
mind ascend up to the heights of
Creators call ,where victory
lives for all

What great, inspiring words:

There is fresh air waiting when you
climb the mountain of hope,
and leave the valley of despair behind.

You'll notice that when we're looking into the valley,
it's always down.
But when you're climbing the mountain of hope,
everything's lookin' up!

We make life so complicated sometimes.

Simple and profound, ET.
Nice, nice job!

Eileen,

He is what it is all about the Creator, Triune God, His Spirit, Jesus. We can find safety within his embrace in is presence. This poem offered to a belief in his refreshing and hope in this world.

I do not believe he has given up on mankind and neither have all of us. just those that do not believe in him or mankind.

"Take a deep breath, and let your

mind ascend up to the heights of

Creators call ,where victory

lives for all



Powerful and blessing.

Peace,

Joselyn

Oh how I can relate to this one, E.T!
Twenty years ago, I threw out my non-working TV, and never bought
another one.
Nature and the Creator's wonders hold me spellbound, in every season, where "multimedia" cannot begin to hold a candle.
I enjoyed this one very much!

Ahhhh!! so now you are talking my kind of talk, Eileen. We seem so willing to allow ourselves to be dragged down into the mire that has been cast around our feet these days, yet, we are the ones who possess the ability to rise above it and revel in all of the beauty that surrounds us. It seems that these days, people are wearing blinders and instead of blinding their eyes to that which instills fear, they are blinding their eyes to those things that will instill hope. Excellent write, Eileen.
Take care,
Sherry
