A Phoenix Emerges
Here's a poem that I was working on recently. I've been going thru some changes in my life and this is what came out. Things usually happen for a reason I've learned so if you are going through a tough time then hang in there because there is usually a light at the end of the tunnel.
A flutter of a
tiny wing
sweeps across
the nation.
And one day wars
are won
because of a
destination
that was set in
motion.
Known as the
butterfly effect.
Sometimes things
happen
that we don’t
foresee
because we are
too wrapped up in it.
But later as we
gaze at
the bigger
picture we realize,
“Aha! Now I see!”
Sometimes you
need
to give it time
to ripen and to
age
until a finer
wine
appears that is
like
fluid poetry in
motion.
Every little bit
we do makes sense
one day and
really matters.
Don’t let anyone
tell you different
cause one day
looking thru the glass
you’ll see the
bigger picture
as you were
meant to be.
You are stronger
than you know
and your
existence makes a difference
whether you
realize it or not.
Someday you’ll
realize
that you meant
the world to me
and to think you
didn’t matter.
When you emerge
from
your secret
cocoon
and show off
your silvery wings
with a shimmer
and a satin sheen
you will know
that you are finally
who you were
always meant to be.
You,
yourself! Only you!
