Earth And Me

  

Many clear nights I look into the

Midnight sky

And often wonder why…

With a million stars out there

Why does the planet ever

Have to be dark?

 

I couldn’t understand my

Own fascination with this thought

Then I came to realize…

 

       Earth is so a lot like me

              In this regard.

Just a small revalation

A simple yet complex revelation. It is through the darkness that we learn to appreciate even the smallest light. When you focus on that light it can brighten your life. I believe that darker side is called the human condition. It is common to all but we must choose whether to let it control us or to let the light permeate even it. Thanks for sharing.

Actually quite a big revelation in from the perspective that we have different sides to us, hopefully the positive takes us to where we are meant to be. Love the way you used the elements in this piece! ~ Jude :-)

How the natural world speaks to us so deeply if we will only listen. So well spoken and expressed! Vivid in your revelation...

[Cherry Berry]

I really liked this piece, as we all have a beautiful side to share and a dark side that we usually like to keep hidden. No one is able to escape it, because no one is perfect. A constant struggle between the two, but in the end the heart reveals itself. This was a beautiful thought. I do not think I ever thought about how so many stars are in the sky, and yet night time prevails. Well penned and thought provoking.

Oh you stole the words out of my mouth, as I read it....I thought, "Wow, Dale has just had a self revalation", and then I read your words....do great minds run together or what????....smiles

It is true though, mankind is much as you say when we stop to think about it....I know I sure can be in the dark when it is completely light out...
Good thoughts to ponder!
