Once Upon a Time - When We Think the Gods Fail Us
“Once upon a time” is how many stories begin
stories filled with adventure
where pages of magic and wonder are held within
But life’s not always a fairytale
that ends with- “They lived happily ever after”
It’s full of ups, downs, tears and joy
with different adventures in every page and chapter
Sometimes our feathers may choose to fly
into the cobwebs of antiquity
where many sorrows and tears we'll cry
The winds blowing to and fro
with the changing pulse of the Universe
through many dimensions- and black holes
The gods usually send us, what we ourselves create
but, there are times we become untuned to the song
the melody of the Universe that musically vibrates
So, whether you be a sinner or a saint
being in tune with the Cosmos-
is a matter of listening with your heart
to the Divine, the angels and the immortals
And...
by using a sage decorum of constraint
