Watch Serenity

nothing can hinder; and; nothing can delay 
light guides our hearts
towards the purest, truthful, 
gains along our way 

the deeper sorrow carves into your being, 
the more joy you become able to contain. 
familiar as we are; 
towards these seasons of change 
 
watch with serenity
walk alongside me, its simple this way
together we can view winters of grief oppose deserts of pain 


continue dissolving the mist that drifts away 


yet again, at dawn,  


whilst leaving a shield of dew, 


only to rise and gather into clouds 


which then falls down in rain, 


again mine to pursue 


its a time to refresh, renew, 


 
 


it is as if our ripeness and fullness of heart 
that we are again,
serene, then given back to the wind and,... again, scattered apart 


so too, watch with serenity, gracefully
accepting all the seasons of your precious heart

Great poem, Bree. It's filled with such amazing imagery, and metaphoric truth, based in the study "serenity". Enjoyable piece overall. Check out some of my poems, might find some you like. Peace.
