Poetry - Endlessly.
I cannot believe May is over and this year is almost half-way through. WOW! 2018 you are flying by! I had a very challenging, tear-inducing and tough May to say the least. I think it even inspired the poem I am writing today on the blog. The idea is that no matter what we go through in life and despite every difficulty and challenge thrown at us, we have to surpass them, continue our lives, move on, survive and smile, at the end. =) Life goes on, as bad as some days get, as hopeless as we feel at times, life goes on and we have to continue thriving!!
Endlessly!
(June 1st 2018).
Endlessly, we wake up in the morning
and greet the sun,
drink our coffee and start our day,
hoping for the best,
go to work to make some money and pay
our bills,
grab some lunch on the go and so on
with the rest!
Endlessly, we find reasons to be happy
and smile,
look around and find all the flowers
and smell them within,
stop and stare at the moon, the stars
and the sun for a while,
take a deep breath and take all the
beauty around us, in!
Endlessly, we follow patterns,
routines, behaviors,
we do the same things each day, each
night,
sometimes we step out of the box and
try different flavors,
we can be daring, brave and bold if we
want!
Endlessly we are looking for something
but what,
a slice of joy, some happiness, a cloud
of hope,
we are looking for love all around us,
that undeniable love,
the love that brings butterflies to our
stomachs, the love that melts!
Endlessly we are looking for a special
someone,
even if we once had him or her ...or so
we thought...
we are looking for the unicorn, for the
one,
our soul's fulfillment, the one we are
meant to find!
Endlessly we are hoping, living and
laughing,
making each day on this earth feel
better than the last,
endlessly we are falling in love,
standing up and falling,
yet continuing to shine even when life
is tough and not the best!
Beautiful emotional words as always, my friend.

Thank you so very much Shel. And one of these days I will catch up with you. =)
DeleteI can't believe May is over with either. Before I know it baby girl will be a year old.

I try to stay positive despite all the negativity. And I had plenty of bad in May, trust me. =)
DeleteWhat a beautiful way to express the thoughts of your mind and the echoes of your heart. Glad I was able to read this poem and share in!
ReplyDeleteI love this one too. And I love the title "endlessly" because it truly captures life and the everyday. But I just wrote a poem now, one of the simplest ones I have written and one of the shortest but in my opinion one of the best. Cannot wait to share it soon.
DeleteThank you so much for expressing your thoughts on this one. =)
Very poignant words Ada. I agree - May just flew by!

Great poem that I will refer back to. 2018 is not shaping up to be great year here. Much loss. Am hoping the year is front-loaded and the second half will be better. Trying like you are. Peace to you.
