Creation

I clasp onto my history as a fever from the past, and recall the restless years that I hoped would ever last, but of course the disappointment is a real and empty one; my recollection’s mostly errors over silly things I done. But recent indications sent me to some people I must thank, and recollections that I spoke about have misted off to blank the misery I spoke about to reap a future that’s unseen, with formation of creation in a blissful pleasant scene. This creation though to many is but meaningless and bland, and is something very private no one else could understand, for something that cannot be seen is felt wafting through the air. It has no smell; it has no taste; but of course I know it’s there. It is not a slowly creeping gain but more a beacon shining bright, to show you through your darkness that there is a guiding light, and it’s built from one creation that two lives can now fulfill, where only death can separate and death it surely will.

I had to comment again, because I read it again - his poem speaks volumes to our innermost thoughts - our souls and ultimately our very existence on this planet - all is for a reason. Well penned Lindsay . Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Hello Jennifer … I think it does what you wrote. I wrote this verse after one of our dogs died during a time when I needed to express my feelings - thanks Jennifer - Lindsay

Excellent write, but does his story die? My wife has been dead for years but still vividly haunts my dreams as "history" haunts the forests, lakes and shadows around us. I suppose the concept of "Hell" is just constant replays of the truly stupid things we have said and done..... Aloha! Rico

Hello Rico … I agree with you Rico. This verse was written as a dedication in a 48 page booklet I wrote to a dog we had with us for 16 years. Not my usual writing at all but I felt I should do something for my little mate - thanks Rico - Lindsay
