Consider the Possibilities

gray0328

 

The empty cup,

A beggar's coinless hat—

Both echo with a kind of wealth.

 

In the room with no mirrors,

Dance the shadows

Of what could be.

 

Picture the barren tree,

It's branches

Cradles for the wind's children.

 

The clock without hands

Teaches the art

Of timeless expectation.

 

Look at the sky,

The ground,

The in-between—

 

All filled with the craft

Of what's to come,

If only you build it.

 

The zigzag of lightning

In a bottle,

The ripe void waiting to burst,

 

That's where we start:

With the quiet thunder

Of possibility.

    Nothing ventured nothing gained comes to mind with your words. You have to put effort in to make a difference. Building blocks. You have to build one brick at a time. I enjoyed the positive message in your poem gray0328. Happy Saturday.
