Therese Bacha Poet Prose Poetry

Mother Nature and Me

I don't know why 
I am writing 
I don't know what 
will come out of it
 I don't know how 
this has happened
I feel like it's me
   my good luck

Mother nature begged
to dictate my now
during that long walk 
towards my new path
the sun burned 
my negativity 
asked me to start having 
    a healthy attitude 
towards life and death

Mother nature urged me
    to remember
life was good to you
you are not the owner here
you are just passing 
       through
  
She transmitted in her own way
telling me we all live with 
     uncertainties
    once in a while
there are reasons to life
just add a meaning to it
make it real enjoyable 
visible full of life
     and love

She projected her light under
 extraordinary circumstances
where are you when you're thinking
a lifetime has gone by in a glimpse
          remember
 a person can't live two lives 
tonight pick up an option
everything you will do has to be
       worth living for

It's your decision 
your responsibility
having faith without hope
    you will not live 
        in peace

This is real what's next in your life
    whatever it might be 
  you would always want 
      that next minute
 make it count don't see weakness 
           everywhere
             I will try
               Terry

Eileen Manassian November 30, 2014 at 10:20 PM XOXOXO! Hope you keep writing. My eyes have been troubling me too. I've had some blood tests done...waiting for results. Hugs to you, and hope you get your situation straightened out. Therese Bacha November 30, 2014 at 10:17 PM Hello Eileen, it is so nice of you Eileen to see you on my page, and I was missing for so long reading your poems. I was on and off, due to some problems with my eyes. You are always here for me. Bless you. Terry xoxo
