One Portion; Twenty-four Hours


Stillness of a white, winter day
All is steady; all is quiet
Within the blink of an eye
A shift in the earth
Snow’s rushing down the mountain side
like ocean waves crashing against the rocky shore
It devours, allowing nothing to stand in its way
it is unforgiving

Peace walks out the door into the morning of a brand new day
Sunshine fills the earth; through the trees; a radiant glow
Jump in the car, drive to work
Share the road with a million other rats in a race
Human nature over-rides
Alter your state of mind
foolishness, arrogance
the over cautious are as dangerous as the daring
Drive downhill for the day instead

Can you feel the holes in His hands?
Will you trust the kiss of encouragement?
will the brush sustain you?
Do you trust?

Cut the locks of long hair
Decay in a grave of a rotting corpse
Lost the tug of war
Happy to sad
Peace to frustration
Agitation
exclamation

Hiking through the mountains, in the wild of the nature; alone
He plans his course; his destination
Trails of doubt reveal themselves
Have you lost your way?
Did you neglect detail?
Question yourself; search inside

She lays on her tear-soaked pillow
He’s not the man he used to be
Where have we gone wrong?
The door is cracked from the day he left
She wonders if he’ll ever come home
Home to his love

Adventurous, wild young hearts
Stride toward a marked out goal
Imagination, anticipation
Then with tainted time
They are jaded and faded

The business man stares out his thirtieth floor window
Look at the world below
Lost in thought
Cars driving, people walking
Thousands upon thousands
Forced to mingle, yet nobody speaks
Yours is yours, mine is mine
A perfect world of strangers
Interrupted thoughts
Time counts down, each second is lost
So much to do, so little time.

Its like you've looked into the world and seen its pain... sometimes brought on by themselves, sometimes brought on by others..... its like there is frusteration in the secluded, isolated, trying so hard to find but never seeking world~ Marvelously written! Be blessed, i love you hun!

So I was skimming over your blogs and I just discovered something. You had mono?! I had no idea. You never told me. I hope you're feeling better now. My cousin had mono over the summer. She's still not feeling the best. She gets tired quickly. Tell me about it sometime.
