Emotional Tapestries

She danced and sang like no one was watching They ravenously gather for the show Humanities insatiable appetites The follies of mankind’s emotional tapestries, who would have ever known The extreme need for heighten trivial stimulation The misery of the same; the mundane Heaven forbid we sit here in this very moment God’s true miracle; life appears to be made in vain The external seeking of emotional delights The sinking spells; awareness of nothing to grasp, nothing to hold The poor desolate preoccupied mind Nothing meaningful; life’s empty, calloused, cold Appreciation of life in this very moment Awareness of the living facts, the living truths Valued internal experiences Ironically, we are the savior we never knew Enjoy; relish in all that life has to offer Take great pride; esteem in all things we do Be fully immersed; living in this special moment Heaven presides; the wisdom of now is the eternal truth
