Dealing With Distraction

Walking or wading in water Along life's way I could sense a pull toward Something...no someone The life-laden leaves Drew out breath from my being I grew greater in the moment If not for the pleasure of knowing .....who or what I would be seeing The birds of the air gathered In a location, around the noun Light gathered at a spot and shone As if there were no sky or ground Closer and closer I come to the moment Revelation would soon be mine I would know and be known By something or someone above humanity ....divine I heard movement and looked left I saw Him, if only for a glance I knew Him, and He knew me But someone smeared my screen ............I awoke without a second chance To possess the image Was that what I was pushing for To own experience, unique to me Was I placing my identity in the natural Trying to prove value on what others see ......coming through my creativity??? Stupid distractions with magnetic attractions Pulling and fooling the bird in flight I don't want to be grounded in order be founded In the legality of level-headed laws...that bite .......and eat the heart of man LOVE is all I want ........all circumstantial evidence is distraction The End Written by Trudy Schrader on 11-6-2018
