How often we ponder skies of blue
searching for signs and secret clues
Time and space we wish to explore
looking beyond the front door
Has the universe defined our destiny
do we feel our eternal melody
Ticked away each precious day, dreaming
into the night chasing moonbeams
A lifetime of poetic mystery unsolved
the earth 's path continues to revolve
Heaven a vastness stretching far and wide
why do flowers grow by a busy roadside
Round and around, we go with each season
nature evolves it needs no reason
The concept of universal interventions
gives us hope for heartfelt intentions
Stars light the way through the darkness
leading towards mystical brightness

And so for today’s MTB prompt we are taking a lyrical line and defining it word by word in an acrostic:
I have chosen this line How time has ticked a heaven round the stars. A poem line from Dylan Thomas
Thanks for visiting
Wonderful take on the prompt and I really like this one :

A soothing cosmic meditation Truedessa 👏
ReplyDeleteI love how you made each little poem into an aforism.
ReplyDeleteI love the lyrical feel of the rhyming couplets, Truedessa, and the way you began with ‘skies of blue’ and ended with stars lighting the way through the darkness.
ReplyDeletesome very lyrical rhyming couplets in your acrostic Trudessa
ReplyDeleteThat was very clever!
ReplyDeleteI love your flowing thoughts - both in rhythm, image and feeling - Jae
ReplyDeleteYes, some mysteries, though glimpsed at, may never fully be solved. I love what you've done with this line, and bravo for the rhyming.
ReplyDeleteThe universe holds many mysteries but you solved the prompt with rhyme...a lovely write, Truedessa!
ReplyDeletethe rhyming is the bonus. A real gem of a poem on a wonderful fine line. Short and so sweet. I love it. I used the same fine line. Mine went longer though. Thanks for sharing yours. A real beauty.
ReplyDeleteThis is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteUtterly lovely, True. You've caught us up in the mystery that surrounds us daily, a mystery lit by hope.
