find due maps

We traverse life seeking coloured feathers
desire silk gowns like fools dancing around
sand grains become ashes spoiling heather
stand we sapped witnesses to contexts found

Halfway we perceive abundant date palms
recall that we are here to live as whole 
Almighty requesting kindness and alms
pass infernos with ignorant blind moles

Banish states of limbo lust and deceit
masses of souls circling as if in traps 
immoderate are actions though seem neat
wade not in oblivion, find due maps

piano frequencies in harmonies 
you will perceive, rejoicing amid ease

Ghairo, every line is filled with graphic images. Love your alliterations - "limbo lust" - and the life journey you take me on from silk gowns and chaos to harmony and rejoicing. So well done. Sending you blessings of rejoicing and peace.
