Photographs of experiences &
Memories shared and relished
Through the passage of time.
These words and lines laced
Together forming thoughts
That trigger one's imagination.
They satisfy one's raging, burning,
And relentless desire to think and
Seek that which is ennobling.
At times, the words rend the
Heart swamping it with emotions
That cause the tear ducts to swell.
The pieces provide meaningful
Occasions for one to ignite the
Searching, cleansing of the soul
When one's spirit and emotions
Are at their lowest, these photos
Both ease and soothe the pain.
They are a balm to the wounds
Brought about by lashes of
Injustice, poverty and scarcity.
The words give comfort to the
Brokenhearted who loved so
Much but were not loved in return.
They are like fresh flowing waters
In a river within a virgin forest
So refreshing to the abused spirit.
They serve as a beacon of light,
A flicker of hope, a vision of
Tranquility and happiness
For a distraught soul whose
Resolve was shattered into
Pieces by painful experiences.
They can lead someone toward
The road of strength where
Everyone has gained all that
It takes to conquer one's
Fears and hesitations and aim
To be whole again.
Above all, these pieces
Enlighten and teach people
To see what is beyond
And realize one's helplessness,
Nothingness, and humbly
Aspire to be enlightened
By acknowledging Him Who Is
Everlasting-The one who can help
Us understand the meaning of it all.
