Poem: Riveting Reflections

 

When world was wrapped with warmth

My world was wistfully withdrawn

 

Beneath the semblance of superficial smiles

Bit by bit I broke every night

 

No flicker of faith seemed to support

In myself, my mind missed hope

 

Which way would be worthy, which way worse,

My mystified mind couldn’t comprehend

 

I stared skeptically at the star-studded sky

Surreal it seemed with sparkling starlight

 

Its radiance reinstated my reliance on Universe

How can my world wither when I’d consecration of Cosmos

 

Pause, patience, perseverance it preached

Traits I’d trashed in times of turmoil

 

I closed my eyes to inspect my inner self

Seeds of credence had sprouted to sapling

 

I picked up my pieces with prayer of providence

To make myself whole with will and wisdom

 

My resonance reflected in resilience and rationale

I seek to see my world worthy of His way!
