A Kyrielle

A chapter in the book Heart Crafted Poems - 2022

Life gives and takes

by JLR

Rain falls gently. Sweet grasses grow.
Summer days beg you to go slow.
Cool water in the creek below
meanders around mountains' bend.

Sourwood struck by lightning's hot blast
now hangs low. Much shade at long last,
for the minnow holding steadfast.
Summer days beg you to go slow!

Life, like nature, leaves many scars!
Rising troubles, like old boxcars,
become abandoned lifeless stars.
Sourwood struck by lightning's hot blast!

To the river, the waters run,
seldom can someone's work be done!
What, taking a pause ... for such fun?
Life, like nature, leaves many scars.

We see much laid to waste during the days of our lives. Yet, even the minnow can find rest and shade in the midst of the tumult of a rushing stream. Therefore the lesson to be learned is to just slow down and breathe.
