Many Waters
many waters fall, many rivers flow
mountains a'plenty reach to the valley's below
time is but a fleeting moment in the plan of life
how sad to waste it all, with trouble and strife
many words unspoken, many smiles unsmiled
laughter's healing balm is all too oft defiled
joy, the language that soothes a troubled soul
is medicine to be taken to make a body whole
many a love lost, many a heart broken
lust's too many, mistaken for loves token
passion, the need of a heart in its searching
its pain is gained in the sordid besmirching
many dreams die, many hopes gone unhoped
imaginations, drugged by a life that's doped
needs, the expressions of desire, gone unfed
until at last tis all too late and we are dead
Beautiful, flowing, thoughtful.
Susie:
This poem is so beautifully written with symbolism so pictureque and vibrant. The true beauty in life is truly life itself. We should cherish every second of beautiful life. As I stated in one of my poems:
CHERISH EVERY MOMENT
Cherish every moment
Like it is your last
Cherish the beauty of the seasons
The trees
The feel of the grass
The songs of the birds
The heat of the Sun
For every moment passed
Is a new life begun
A cool gentle breeze
The rustle of the trees
The beauty of nature
Can bring you to your knees
So enjoy every moment
Forget about the past
Remember to thank GOD Almighty
For beauty that will forever last
