Impossibilities

Reach out into the realm of impossibilities
reach in and feel something so real
a heart beckoning  reckoning 
for a chance to live, to breathe, to believe
holding in nothing
holding out hope 
and a helping hand knowing
good still has a fighting chance
that daylight always rises
stars seem to shine brightest with open eyes
and love still carries home a welcome smile

Humans are the only creatures that reach out for impossibilities. Personally I find this strange, given all the possibilities life offers us. Enjoyed your poem. Many thanks for stopping by to read my limerick. Best to you in your writing endeavors. / M

Good will Always have a fighting chance when one let it in (and that is holding onto hope). That last line says so much. NICE Tim :)

Good Morning Tim. This is beautifully stated and expressed. In short the real of impossibilities as you say truly is possibilities. This is a little gem of worth. Have a wonderful morning. Well done

Stars shine brightest when you need them the most. Good still exists, friendship too, and so does love. And so do smiles :) Beautiful poem.
