Random Pieces

 

It is difficult to see

Through the pitch of darkness

Through the glare of intense brightness

Through the white fog of illuminated clouds

Past the bombardments

of overwhelming useless information

The forest through the trees....................................

 

Yet.................................................................

We still image things invisible to eyes

Diviner courses without landmarks

Continue to discover uncertainties

Walking blindly into the unknown

Smile amidst shatters of broken dreams

To reach heights never before imagined.

 

We listen for vague signs..........................

Of hope in the distant future

Of life in cold dark forbidding places

Of happiness in fallen leaves or...

Flakes of tumbling melting snow

The calm before the storm............................

 

Yet................................................................

We hear voices from the past

Directives from past lives and dreams

Innuendos from future conversations

Demanding us to continue on

To discover in the distant disturbances

The words and rhythms of revelation

 

Yet..............................................................

The feelings vanish

As quickly as they materialized

Forcing us to re-examine

Our position and purpose

Bringing new doubts and reanimated fears.

That we might have missed the crucial part

Of the ever changing puzzle of our destiny

But we still return to our box of random pieces

Knowing the needed piece is somewhere

Buried there within our grasp.
