The next step
Between my heart beat,
Poppy love and flowers on fields,
Earth quakes and tremors, darkened clouds
My stomach rumble, sweat glands burst
Signals of a change in weather,
My finger reads metamorphosis in the breeze
This is ghostly silence, and they say
There is a calm before the storm, the brew
Like t' drag of the ocean eerily, sunk into its bosom
Before rage of tsunami and trauma hits
And obstacles has to be faced no hiding place
By sons to blossom into men in initiations
Like child birth, transformation of Virgo
In fields where innocence is lost,
When good men go to war and come back changed
This is the middle ground of chapters
This is the epic being written
Voyage of serendipity
I like the last stanza. So very true. We never know what the 'next step' for our world will lead.
