Matthew Anish Poet Rhyme

Meditation

A million,million 
     stars shining above
tell us we 
should feel the power of love
But people on the street 
(and there are so many there to meet)
Keep their eyes on the prize
   and they are feeling rather wise
 Stop telling us lies 
We'll give you a surprise 
This beginning marks the end 
 Of troubled times, my friend 
    There is nothing to fear 
As a brillant light comes near 
Proving we are 
  all one beneath a blazing sun 
   And so time rolls 
on by 
   We no longer ask why 
Our own fate is the truth 
Do we need further proof?
When the city shuts down 
   We''ll get a nice rest 
    We've passed 
    our first test 
Overcoming the 
day's sorrow 
We anticipate a 
       bright tomorrow 
 Our eyes become clear 
The future's almost here 
Before slipping out of sight 
I wish you all a good night!

Judy Ball July 4, 2011 at 10:41 AM It's importnt to look forward to a brighter tomorrow even when things are bad. But we need wisdom to be able to see what's wrong and fix it without destroying what is good. Good write here. God Bless, JB

Andrea Dietrich June 16, 2011 at 8:23 PM I find this comforting but in a strange way since it seems to be saying the end is near. but it is said in an optimistic way. Maybe a start over for the earth? maybe we fly off to another planet. In any event, I enjoyed it.
