Runner

the road runner raced within the lucid dream looking for something to satisfy its heart goalposts shifted in the desire stream shapeshifting fears did not depart as time flowed on body aged the exhausted soul chose to be still recognising it had been by ego upstaged invoking grace it surrendered to God its will

Ah, it was a last minute rush entry with only one slot left in the contest. Happy you liked it even though, as you say it is a short poem.

I really love the shape of your poem dear seeker, and as time goes by, we realize the importance of remaining still and in silence we find the light within, your way with words is as always so soulfully sincere, and i especially loved “ goalposts shifted in the desire stream shapeshifting fears did not depart” exquisite how youv phrased your thoughts and sublime rhymes! Pleasure reading warm words woven in such eloquence! Sending you light always
