Lessons
Layers of earth
stand the test
of elements kept
close to her breast.
Preserving them
for future need
nourishing her
and her flourishing seed.
Awaiting the moment
for the seed to take root
thin hands reaching
and taking food.
Eagerly seeking
the knowledge of old
of what time has taught
lessons for the bold.
Never take for granted time;
count all moments in life
including the ones
that cause so much strife!
Absolutely right… time is floating by. I’m glad we’re on the boat together.
Serves as great reminder especially:
Never take for granted time;
count all moments in life
including the ones
that cause so much strife!
Such a beautifully written poem ?
This is a beautiful poem.
A wonderful, well written piece. Simply beautiful.
What a beautiful expression of lessons learned. I was happily lost in this piece.
