Heidi Sands Poet Rhyme

Out of Reach

Today is a nice day. This is just a recent expression of difficult times. 


Love is out of reach
Lost in this distant place
Now just trying to teach,
Lessons to myself, I face
Time has changed my life
I cannot see the scene
Through so much murky strife
The path, I cannot glean
Storms tease in the sky
Circling all around
Thunderbolts are nearby
Light shines, then isn't found
I'm tired of questions now
Elusive answers day by day
Wanting to turn the clock somehow
Changing time to find my way
Let there be a lightening strike
With certanty of insight
Because I would really like,
Some understanding to shine bright
Reach me, lift me, erase this doubt
Enlighten me with something new
I don't know what this is about
As many days, seem to be so few

Panagiota Romios July 11, 2019 at 10:44 AM Another Sands winner. Love is always within our reach but entanglements bind us. It might be right in our face? But we keep looking backwards.-)) You are a fine poet, Heidi. I like you because it's you in each poem. Panagiota Heidi Sands July 11, 2019 at 12:44 PM Thank you Panagiota. I appreciate your kindness and support always :)

Caren Krutsinger July 2, 2019 at 7:11 AM "Elusive answers day by day Wanting to turn the clock somehow Changing time to find my way" - this is how we all feel some times but few of us have the words to describe it. Okay, maybe we have them, but do we know how to USE them like this? I do not. Great job! Heidi Sands July 2, 2019 at 10:34 AM Thank you so much Caren. I appreciate your kind comment and all your support :) Have a great day!
