A Little More

Around the radius of your enduring terrain, 
Be not like the kite on the windy day. 
The sky eagle claims with feathered hands, 
Unlike the quadrilateral crafted on deluded plans. 

Pendulum hung on the clock is not breaking away! 
It's the psaltery, dancer to the keeper's song. 
Tell the dancing leaf on the mango tree
A little menacing wind can end it's spree. 

Not everyone has got the lion's heart I know! 
Not every glittering now will forever glow. 
But focus like the lion upon the prey,
And glee like the farmer on the harvest day.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
