Shadows of Doubt

Shadows of Doubt

 

 

Dawn through the clouds
comes when thought begins to be experienced,
when a child's smile is felt,
not just seen,
when the touch of finger tips upon the eyelids
creates the flickering of truth within,


Such is an innate view of reality that many never discover,
for to see the light through the shadows of doubt,
requires belief and trust that the sun always cycles,
giving us light,
warmth,
affirmation.

 

Very special,
this cosmic reality,
sun's nurturing-life beneath the clouds of mind,
providing an aspect of life we often ignore.

 

Making a friend of the sun

and its many faceted realms of understanding,
reveals a one-of-a-kind awakening,
without which there might be a dawn

beneath skepticism that continuance ends…

with death.

I'm having a little trouble perceiving, "beyond a shadow of a doubt," what you are portraying in this bit of prosetry. To just allow the sun to go on cycling without wanting to know anything about its origin, its life, and its eventual demise, seems to be lazy. I have found by questioning everything, there is a rich knowledge to be learned.

Beautifully said: "To see the light through the shadows of doubt," So we live and breathe... Thanks for sharing. I needed this today.

The sun is actually a very powerful symbol of all that illuminates outer and inner worlds. As a result, "this cosmic reality // sun's nurturing-life beneath the clouds of mind, // providing an aspect of life we often ignore." So true.
