Dreams don’t come around so easily
Not with lazy days sitting so idle
It takes some effort, a level of consistency
Break away from your hardening denial
Let go of how it was meant to be
Unknown destiny, life was never a trial
But simply a moment to hear and see
Able to perceive from galaxies to the atomic
Slowly solving the puzzle, the mystery
Able to see life much like a blank comic
Where each panel was left to be made
By the stroke of your brush and a little bit of logic
This is the dance before all we know must fade
So in the end let us cherish that we gloriously played

I‘m currently in a poetry workshop where we have to experiment with different forms. This poem is following the Terza Rima scheme:
Terza rima is a rhyming verse stanza form that consists of an interlocking three-line rhyme scheme. It was first used by the Italian poet Dante Alighieri. (Terza rima – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
Beautiful writing. 😊

Thanks sangg527, I appreciate it! And at some point it’s not about work being better or worse — it’s having this moment for self-expression. I’ll check out your blog on a less hectic day than today 🙂
self expression is therapeutic 🙂
