    Fate



    The autumn breeze blew you to me,

    just a leaf tumbling in the wind.

    I could have let you keep rolling;

    but I lifted you, called you “friend”.

     

    Held you tight in my hand and heart,

    rejoicing your colors and hue

    and the fine texture of your soul.

    Lovely shades of orange, never blue.

     

    With days so full of life, laughter

    and great wisdom, we share as one

    the love of our great creator,

    the earth, the moon, the stars, the sun...

     

    Our friendship forever precious.

    Until the end, I shall ever be

    so humbled and so grateful that

    the winds of fate blew you to me...

    You are so good with words. To be able to see and feel so much from a spiritual point of view. Reading your words gives me hope about the human race after all. Thanks for your words.

    Wow, thank you for your compliment - I appreciate it. I wrote this poem at about 4:00 am this morning when I couldn't sleep. There is much to be hopeful for when you speak of the human race, but it is not readily apparent upfront , that is for sure. I look forward to reading your poems and others' this weekend. Please keep in touch and thanks, again.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
