The Soul of Life

Nothing can dim the glow of my tears those meaningful moments which I still recall. I find certain joys yet silence in time With occupying thoughts that always cross my mind. Along the stream of consciousness, there’s a hidden message. I may be attentive perhaps, but time creeps so fast There’s difficulty that hampers me then a busload of burdens that wrap me till nightfall. On and off, I turn to gaze at these things Wholly appreciative that counts twice as much The richness in spirit opens my heart to beat Like a dancing note that jumps over the keyboard. I always take cognizance of all things I cherish I seem to value more regardless of pains that afflict me I am strong and truthful to attune my well-being In this valley of tears, I struggle And weep not for my fall. Moving back and fro, I see the rhythm of life Numerous trials, successes and growing defeats But I still stand, without regrets nor fears because this is life that brings love in return.
