beyond

Beyond

 

There is a place of light and promise

Beyond the corridor of that separates;

A rising wall of insidious beauty intimidates,

Steals a dream, and tells the heart to turn back.

 

There is a heart that overcomes, that makes the trek;

One that laughs at daunting, steep behemoths ahead.

The journey, though filled with peril and danger abounding

Rewards the brave one, reveals the prize to the unrelenting.

Ahhhh, and when the sweat dries, wounds mend and one can stand up and dust off ....... the most incredible sense of well being and renewed faith in all things good shines in the eyes ...... eyes that know and are not likely to forget.

Well done, my friend. Truly inspiring piece. Thank you for sharing. ;-)

Wow, I thought this was a very good piece of writing. Nicely done!

that is one of my favorite ways to write.. to find a photo or painting that inspires... this is really nice.. a duality of choices... to act or not to act? to turn back or forge ahead... constantly weighing options and outcomes.. and sometimes we just have to take the leap without thinking...

have a great weekend :)
