A broad smile, life seems to be
That is gradually fading with the passing of the years.
Till it is fully eradicated by our...
Insurmountable agonies and uncompromising fears!

Alter. Or on? Or is it all in the mind? In the broadest sense of all reaches, how best can we?
Portray the pure attributes of true poetry
Divine'
Thoughts do not have a broad reach,
unless they are shared
Words can have a broad reach, if they
are shared and spread
Kindness can often have the broadest
reach of all, because it can be contagious
Faith has a broad reach, because
it is unseen and powerful
Hope can reach the highest highs and
lowest lows and seep into the tiniest cracks
Nature embracing Earth have broad reach
to nourish, support and enrich
Ecosystem participating at random
in cosmic curriculum
exhibiting wide spectrum
through versatility,
dynamism and vitality.
Vast oceans, rivers, mountains,
deserts, volcanoes, fountains
going through formation , reformation,
or destruction , extinction !
Natural happenstances —-
Infinite number of instances.
Life is also running through initiation
evolution and extinction
ceaseless continuous
on broad reach simultaneous.
Holding broad reach, Nature possessing so many aspects
presenting , also representing non-living and living objects.
The wind slides across the sail,
not only an angular thrust,
but a broad embrace of motion,
a wide reach of prime promise
that progress need not be a struggle,
and existential course can be covered
with faith in favorable invisible currents,
the natural drift of what one really is.
Leaning on the flow of moments
life is an art of sailing
with what carries it forward,
the skilful insight of knowing
when to align with the possibility,
with the intent of efficient navigation,
a shift from friction to surge,
releasing the potent momentum of passion.
A vessel leaning to the breeze,
Where sunbeams dance on rolling seas,
With canvas full and spirits high,
Beneath an endless sapphire sky.
The whispered song of rushing foam,
As white-tipped waves begin to roam,
And halyards hum a steady tune,
Beneath the watchful afternoon.
No hurried tack, no breathless fight,
Just perfect balance, smooth and bright,
A broad reach toward the fading sun,
Where sea and open sky are one.
“I think scars are like battle wounds-beautiful in a way. They show what you’ve been through and how strong you are for coming out of it.”
Demi Lovato
Love has a broad reach
It’s truly magical and deep
With power to bring about peace
It boldens the shy and meek
A broad reach it can create
With warm touch procreate
And continue in a face
Blended like a copy a babe
A broad reach it is divine
Love gives sight to blind
It’s not selfish and it’s kind
True love stands test of time
Love each other and self as well
Create heaven on earth avoid hell
Awakening to a cool morning and
coffee fueled hope,
everyday is an unknown path.
I mann the helm of life,
just as the sailor to his boat.
We both set our eye on a course,
a broad reach of twists and turns
farther then imaginable.
We have no destination
just carefree sailing on a new day.
Everyday is a different outcome,
some days we stand in awe,
some days we struggle for that reach.
We float through life on choppy waters,
isolation more comfortable alone then with others.
It's a time to find oneself,
instead of feeling like we are nonexistant.
i search for everything that is possible - tangible.
While the ocean roars with excitement,
i feel a silent victory within.
Poetry is what happens when your mind stops working, and for a moment, all you do is feel. ~The 2nd-century Greek philosopher, Atticus.
giving lip service to trending topics
might ensure a broad reach
with ample accolades
but does the multitude
actually read the words bleeding on your page
written to the heartbeat of fear?
history does not prepare us for the reality
where we are now adrift in uncharted waters
our voices drowned out
by a tsunami of opinions
even in the legend of Noah’s ark
the basic human need of a partner
is understood
I don’t have a need for the populace
but an innate need of you
just to sit with me
as we ignore the broader reach of Lilith’s shadow
washing over mankind
The time for me to be President
has long passed
if ever my wondrous wishes thought I could
there was no reason to believe it was a goal
it was far-far above my intelligence
Perhaps a passing thought when I'd been drinking
when those who were President, I perceived wrong
then I'd laugh with a quiet shrug
sit back in my rocking chair, and say to myself
" I'm where I belong "
Mountain breezes blow
White sheet billows on blue sky
Gliding past the pines
Endless water lies ahead

You do not know
of who I am
and yet you brush me broadly.
These shoes I wear
and all I've seen
to wit,
has helped to shape me.
Presumptive you
without a clue
your arrogance astounding!
I do not care,
your thought's are skewed
distorting who I might be.
This brush you use
accusingly,
bristled with ignorance.
Just who I am
or choose to be
your brush
does not define me!
I’m a broad who’s abroad
And I’m traveling toward
Where my tour will be moored
For the night.
Every view has me floored
And what can’t be ignored
Is that what I’ve adored,
Each new sight,
In my brain will be stored
So that when I am bored
I’ll recall what I’ve scored
With delight.

Name.
