I should be studying, but as usual, I am procrastinating. Seriously hoping for a snow day, which is usually a lost cause because its already been jinxed. Oh well. Instead, I want to share a poem, of something, about someone, or anything in between... Oh what to write...
I love the feeling that surges through my veins
When something great is accomplished when all hope was lost
Because somehow those great deeds could only be done
At the highest price, a most miserable cost.
The pieces gathered together, all neat and aligned
So kindly and so sweet they fell into place
Now to others who only saw sadness in me
See a bright, beaming smile in its place.
Perhaps waiting is tortuous
Yes, no one wants to pass the time waiting
How true are these words for a student who has a deadline
Or a young girl who is dating
But time has this funny way
Of showing us that this is all for our good
So we do as we're told
And follow nicely like we should
And somehow all those little parts
That were randomly thrown askew
Come together like the notes of a song
And reveal depth, and beauty to show they are true.
Waxing graceful poetics
On my side of the screen
Do you understand my happiness?
Do you know what I mean?
The hand that is guiding us
Holding us close and tight
Has all the answers and pieces
And only He knows what's right
So He's putting together the puzzle of our lives
Careful to be sure that the pieces are properly placed
And if we mess up, cuz sometimes we do
Who says we can't fix our mistakes with some paste?
:D
I guess you could say this poem is a jumble of thoughts. My mind has been all over the place I am kind of amazed I could write something semi-coherent/poetic... Does anyone get it?
Basically, I am pretty happy right now. Despite the confusion and pressure, things are coming together...

I'm happy to hear that you are happy! :-)
ReplyDeleteme too :D
ReplyDeleteRachelli- so happy that you're so happy :) B"H, it's a wonderful feeling, isn't it? I started crying during Mincha today (and sadly, that's a rarity) just cuz I was so happy and grateful to Hashem for all the good He has showered upon me.
ReplyDeleteFreeda, I am so happy for you! (Have I said that already?? K, well I really am!) And once again, you continue to inspire me!
ReplyDelete(And thanks for reminding me...)
