Blessed to know you all

Poetic Dan



I once walked around thinking no one would ever want to be me

 

Now over time so many people have confided in me

 

As I have with them stories of our past and present 

 

To the point I've been filled with enough recognition

 

Never to hide any wavering quivering emotion

 

Each one was a message muted by anger and frustration

 

As I started to properly get it off my chest

 

Spilled every emotional energetically charged thought

 

Riding the waves of tears wanting to shout

 

Guided consciously to break a pattern of self pity

 

I now see that worthiness in me and everybody

 

I'm not walking around thinking you should be like me but more like, if only you could see what I see.

 

Now I remember how many times that was said to me, I guess persistence is the key

 

Or maybe its just a matter of time and company

 

I am blessed to connect with so many souls on my journey

    I can see no reason why you should ever put yourself down again Dan... you have clearly moved forward and found not only a new voice and a new way of expressing yourself, but a new you too.... a pat on the back is in order ,,,,,,, Neville

    • Poetic Dan

      I keep telling my brain that too but this old/new voice can't and would never go to the back again. Front and centre, giving trust, respect and loyalty learnt from four paws. With a bit more 😉

      Thank you

      • Neville

        pleasure's mine....

        I'll never fly said the caterpillar...
        Oh yes you will said he butterfly...
        The passing of time is sometimes all we need
        Great write Dab,,, sorry I mean Dan... there you are

        • Poetic Dan

          Pmsl.. So simple but so true, some things you just won't know until it happens! Even then you can be stuck still seeing yourself as the past!

          Thank you so much for the reflection
          Always appreciated

            Thank you Fay, it's been a pleasure to get your feedback and read your poetry! I shall keep singing xx

          • Michael Edwards

            You've arrived and poetically you're one of us.

            • Poetic Dan

              I sit with a sigh of relief, thank you my friend.

            • orchidee

              Oh woe! The only thing folk will be un-blessed with is me singing! heehee.

              • Poetic Dan

                So you say but we all know it's the opposite 😉

                I wholeheartedly agree with Nevilles words.

                Consider this. Each one of us who has commented on your work over the years here is an imperfect soul either going through or coming out of a self repair mechanism. Whether it ever ends i don't know. But this much i do know. You are one of us and among us you have no need to validate yourself for we value you. If you were a cowboy i guess we would all agree that you won your spurs quite a while ago.

                • Poetic Dan

                  Ching ching, I hear my feet happy with that.
                  Your words and sentiments always got the spot my friend.

                  Thank you Endlessly

                  Dear Dan, my friend, your hope in deciding your own hearts truths and the witnessing of some lower ground level of life leaves you only looking upwards to see how high you've fallen from. Now the persistence of your thoughts which you create for us readers to dwell upon, learning how to take, retrieve, except, take in and to watch you grow more so everyday into a beautiful being is just a remarkable feat to have gained towards your own wisdom of life. I trust you, I think about you and congratulate you on both your winnings and your losses. Without those you wouldn't be you. I perceive serenity is heading your way and I expect from the poetry you teach us will lift the skies to reveal your name written right across its blue beauty followed up with the Sun shining down on you for the rest of your life. Never let your dreams fail you and from what I can gather your intentions are pointing in the right direction. You are loved whatever you write, say or do. Keep the world smiling for everyone around you and I'm quite sure you will positively win the day. Keep the fight alive and tell the world of what you have learned in order for others to learn from. Now that's one of Gods gifts given to you open evenhandedly. Beat that if you can and then your star will shine bright forever.

                  • Poetic Dan

                    As I struggle this morning to balance my energy, I'm helped by every word you and DS have used.
                    The support in your words my friend are a cushion that stops my old insecure thoughts of not being good enough or able to handle life, a river of which I'm no longer part off.

                    I hope you are well and I truly thank you for your time.

                  • Goldfinch60

                    May your journey never again go to the dark places and you continue your way in life with the light to brighten your path.

                    • Poetic Dan

                      It still flickers my friend but with all this support that where it will stay.

                      I could never thank you all enough and hope it comes back to everybody.

                    • kevin browne

                      Permanently keep your finger dipped in the river of positivity and it will lift you up and lead you to anywhere you want to be in life.
