Head On

Heart beats in rhythm to snowflakes 
Cascading in tune to my reality

Like a train travelling through time with no track 
Overwelmed by it's vivid fertile surroundings

Colours pencilled in my mind
As a reminder of life and it's many shades

Guided by the brightly lit angels from above
Resolve in my faith remains steadfast

Andrea Dietrich Date: 12/24/2016 2:45:00 PM Just reread your first second and third "best" poems (this was considered number three). I believe I have seen all your poetry and I love seeing it again.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 11/21/2016 5:23:00 PM this is a colorful spiritual poem, CArol. I really like it and glad I could find it to read. I think I may have read all your others!

Freddie Robinson Jr. Date: 11/19/2016 11:27:00 AM A very spiritual poem, Carol. So well written in the rhythmic meter of life. Wonderful poem in so many ways. I really felt the vibe of it in my soul. But please enlighten me: the title, give me your thoughts on it. What it means to you in your own words. I would appreciate the insight. From one poet to another, a request from a kindred spirit. Love and peace to you. Login to Reply Carol B. Date: 11/19/2016 1:55:00 PM Freddie, I am thrilled that you liked my poem. In answer to your question regarding my thoughts on my title. When life throughs you a curve ball and you're riddled with uncertainty you have two options either you deal with it "Head On" or you let it eat you up. I choose to learn from the experience and do my best to move forward. It's not always easy sometimes your heart beats as quickly as snowflakes cascading, you remember life has it's ups and downs. That's were faith comes into play. We need to believe in ourselves and have faith that all will be okay. We're never alone.  I truly believe I have angels watching over me :) Have a wonderful weekend!
