Wordle 98
Blue, blessed, deserves,
first, gasps, instant, slap, snare, dust, unbalance, ride, wings.
Highs and lows
How can you unbalance
the scales
and tip them to touch
heaven,
to feel the draught
from angels' wings,
without them swinging
down into the dust,
to feel the slap
the instant you hit the
ground?
From the blessed blue
heaven
to the snare of dark
depression
the ride of life goes on.
At first one gasps
and screams and cries
and thinks it is only what
one deserves,
but later, or sooner,
through thoughtful
introspection
the balance
can be found.
We live, and we learn... that's the plan anyway...
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, many die trying to achieve that balance.

I believe there is a balance, but often wonder if we'd recognize it when it happens.

We can only ourselves adjust our own scales to be balanced. When we let others judge us we can become unbalanced. May you always land safely when carried by angels wings.
ReplyDeleteThe ride of life goes on...how true it is. We can't hop off for even a second.
ReplyDeleteThere's a balance? No one ever tells me anything...lol. I'm one of those high/low people. (Maybe all Veronicas are...I wouldn't be surprised) :) Nicely whirled Veronica.
ReplyDeleteoh, so true...
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments. It's great to feel the community, if you know what I mean. :)
ReplyDeleteVeronica. I love the conciseness of your poem and the message was well conveyed. The words meld seamlessly into your work. Nicely done.
