My Great Encounter

A mental pilgrimage
beyond the horizon
of mind,
unrefined.

Self introspection,
pricked my conscience
with your double edged
remarks.

Realization shattered
self-complacency
mushroomed 
in my untamed self.

On the verge
of desolation
I encountered you
my Teacher
who took me
to the unending vista
of imagination.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
