Is This Life

Pictures.... once sketched 
In uncompromising hues
Of hot sepias and brilliant pastels
Companions by choice 
Shades held together, pained in
Harmony

Facing the sky, 
Singing to a love
Bigger than we are
We trod in the twisted pathways,
Of time

A never-ending search, 
For the truth
Seems we've been struggling 
With these issues since youth

Yet, Time stands still for no man
When it gets to be too much
We return it all to God’s Hand

In this multi-faceted world 
I gently caste my bread upon the waters.  
Regaining my strength one hundred fold…

time stands still for no man woman or child I like the essence and the bare rawnsess of this write, filled with pain, hope and faith, we should always give it to God, his shoulders are much broader than ours, take care D-nyce
