Lost In Thought

  

indecision clouds the mind

as the veil of fog

obscures morning's moon

 

resolve harvests an air of conviction,

yet uncertainty slowly drifts in

 

nothing in life's permanent except change,

I've witnessed it

watching dark skies surrender to the sun

 

still masked in fog,

they carry the prospect of opportunity

    Nothing leads to more misery than trying to hold onto something that cannot be held... there is so much more opportunity in movement, than trying to set everything in stone... Wonderful piece!!!

    Lovely and thoughtful! Great use of clouds, veil, fog, movement drifting inevitably, and yet allowing glimmer of hope. Congratulations on the bronze!

    Congratulations on the bronze. With life there's always hope no matter how remote the opportunity seems to be. I hope you'll be blessed with an endless supply of opportunity.

    Sincerely,

    Nothing in life is permanent and I love that you saw that in this picture. This was just a very beautiful piece all the way through and does lend a sense of positive energy to the reader as well. Thank you so much for entering my contest

    The pure unadulterated beauty of this piece lies in its truth and philosophy of life which has been taken over control by your muse. The description and concept of the words flowing across the page have been gently pushed to the forefront to reveal an all too peculiar phenomena, which is known as life. Indeed this a great write. Best of luck to ya!

    Human life is a continuous thread which each of us spin to his own patterns, rich and complex in meaning. If you think you can or you think you can't do a thing, you are right. Great thoughts flowing here Ms 1der. Good luck in your contest.

    indecision clouds the mind
    as the veil of fog
    obscures morning's moon

    I can feel that indecision cloudng the mind, bring along with it a mass of confusion as thefog rolls in and covers everything in its path. You have some strong imagery here. Impressive imagery. Then you end it all on a ray of hope, showing that if we look for it, there is always a way out. Very impressive. Good luck in the contest.

    such a reflective poem! It lets the reader take what they will from it. Clouded by indecision but also balanced with hope. Excellent!
