Epiphany

Listening to Zenna's People stories I'm filled with wonder.
The God of light year strides condescends to me.
Speaking deep within where the soul's code runs
Commanding divine words
Don't be normal, be mine.
And the presence fills the air.

I had to smile here because my son could have written  this yesterday.  Not 
sure how many times he called saying how boring it was  and he was just 
looking for something to do.  He does security and would  have given his eye 
teeth to be on camera duty.  This is great..and as you  see it can be about 
anything... amazing how poetic we can get about those things  we do not think 
of as poetic... you said it best.. seeking, questing,  reaching..  well done!

A slow  day at the office

Wishing I were busy, this respite is not  welcome,
Seeking usefulness, the day drags on.
Seeking, questing,  reaching for purpose
A reason for being, a reason for being here  now.
But this to will pass, and soon, I will seek  rest.

Thank you Shawn!  I rather like this one myself..  as  I said I did 
struggle 
at first because I approached it in the wrong way  but I  found what I 
wanted to say finally..

The other night I was sort of challenged to write a  40   word poem about 
'laughter'.  I can't remember who  exactly issued  the  challenge and I do 
apologize for that. I  did try.. and to be  honest I was almost  stumped at 
 
first.  
But here is what I came  up with... very simply  said  but quite 
introspective 
if I am being   honest.

Laughter

I  tuck them away,
each giggle  and  almost
unheard chuckle, every  belly
jiggle and each  Jello  guffaw,
every snort and snicker,
and whoosh  of  plucked  tissues
to absorb merriment's tears...
because sometimes  what I   need
most to remember is... laughter.
