Emotion Rides

Emotion rides its roller coaster silently
Trotting hope requests scenic journey,
Stubborn dreams cling solidly to free
Potent life breathes calmly its sea.

Running vision stares a mighty road
Heroic sense vaults to highest mode.
Continued struggle garners lofty load,
Victory battles weak soul of man’s abode.

Traveled path grieves for final task
Reflection jars memory streaked past,
Measured trail basks in gloried light,
Lamented blessing opens heart right.

As your emotion slides from high to low and back again enjoy the ride. It means that you are still alive.

Your images are chaotic, but clear, and they show your strength thru the chaos.

Blessings,

I just love reading your insight. You put a special touch and meaning for my words. I write my thoughts and you give them the reason. Thanks for being a true friend. Otherwise, I might shoot that bug crawling on the wall over there behind you. :)
