Brenda Chiri Poet Free verse

Effervescent Glow

The moon's effervescent 
glow hangs low as if saddened 
while the heavens shower me
with tears of its once 
bright celestial being
soaking me in the hurt and
sadness,
feeling the moons pull 
upon me I ask
"How can you cry and still 
shine with such beauty ?"
clouds part and all the 
celestial beings seem to smile 
down upon me
Warming my heart telling me
"No one is above pain and one 
should  not  stay in a state of 
distress! For no matter
how great your pain, happiness 
is something one must find 
within themself..
We can not allow our emotion 
to define us by not seeing it 
as a healing process 
realizing with good comes bad 
Learning from it but never letting it 
take our effervescent glow....

Gershon Wolf October 11, 2019 at 2:46 PM Such wisdom imparted in this poetic piece. Rarely have I seen such a romantic write dispense such sage, commonsense advice: We do, indeed, have to take the bad with the good, 'cos as you penned it, it's all part of a 'healing process.' Bravo, Brenda the Romantic Philosopher! ~ gw Brenda Chiri October 14, 2019 at 4:23 PM Thank you Gershon I so appreciate your words!;)
