Anselmo Boles Poet Rhyme

Anxiety of Seeing Nothingness

Anxiety Of Seeing Nothingness


        Been gazing at the stars dim and bright dazed and yet spellbound

        Through scattered clouds blinding lights penetrating dulled senses

        Dream of yesteryear began to caress eroded perceptions profound

        Far from what I sensed reality might seem and not false pretenses

        Filled with illusions invoking mind to surrender aged wisdom found

        Fearfully emerge amidst the darkest kingdom devoid of fragrances

Anselmo Boles February 15, 2022 at 11:03 PM That is true, and like you said, it is more comforting when there is a radiant, enduring scene waiting after one's last breath. I believe that the spirit is eternal. Many thanks once again for the warmth in your comment Valsa!

Valsa George February 15, 2022 at 7:48 PM If we see nothing beyond, it is so distressing ! The thought of a world of bliss waiting to receive us compensates for all our trials in life.... ! I always see wisdom in your poetry, dear friend !

Anselmo Boles February 14, 2022 at 7:17 PM There are those who have assumptions that after death, nothing else happens and then lights out, making them feel uncomfortable and even fearful. I believe in the spirit's endless journey...ab

Gershon Wolf February 13, 2022 at 4:57 PM Well, as they say -- Seeing is Believing. 'SOMEthing to that,' I think. ~ Gershon Anselmo Boles February 13, 2022 at 6:25 PM Yes, and there are those fearful, of finding out that after death, there is just utter silenced darkness and not the scene of a welcoming, blissful and radiant paradise. You have the right notion, Gershon! Thanks...ab
