REDEMPTION
Largely uninspired, insipid, wane
Seeking redemption, life and glory
Frantic to break the mould
I covet a dainty new story
No star-crossed lovers aboard a doomed ship
No sundry romances, no tales of horror
No battles, no rattles, no overflowing ardour
No myth, no truth, no struggle for power
It’s about finding the self
Living life like it’s meant to be led
Finding the heart’s dearest desire
Feeding thy soul, and its fire
Deep, dark, blue and cold
Groping for a hand to hold
To get that thing to throb again
And somehow tide over the pain
The game needs me to win
And the win badly craves a game
Bearer of this lingering question
Will thy victory have my name?

Hi!! Nice Poem, When r we getting to read one from you :)
Lovely and powerful..((wings))
"It’s about finding the self Living life like it’s meant to be led Finding the heart’s dearest desire Feeding thy soul, and its fire"
Such wonderful words. I found this paragraph most striking for me today. I think I have to re-evaluate my deepest desire in life and set it on fire again.
Thanks for your words. They are something for me to reflect today.
Have a great day, Nidhi.
Always beautiful words.........
I am alright.....How are you??????????????
...I feel like a woman with not enough time in the day and craziness abounds while the pile gets deeper. With a little over a week to go before I really cook and the other lady doesnt have anything........ I feel i have to go out and get more to make the event go off without a hitch. My mind is in three places at once.
The event is Dec 7th and 8th..the Sunday before til the Sunday after I do nothing but cook and work. Everyone and their brother has volunteered the decorating and the setting up process.......but since there is no director to coordinate everything and deal with the phone calls it is crazy.........I have bought and moved enough food but since no one else has come through yet on the delivery of baked goods, paper products, forks or even heating trays.....one screams......
This is why I start over a month in advance to get it all done and ignore here.......
May we all play the game, with a glorious victory the outcome.
Sounds like you need a challange to try to win.
Beautifully written and beautiful photo.
I am sure victory will embrace such words of beauty.
