Wreckage of the Mind

There are those in life who wander through wreckage of the mind, meaning all too often we walk through out life with a lot of wreckage that lay’s scattered in our minds. In my own case, recently I spent time focusing on my Faith and what lays about in my mind scattered as refuse.

About The Poem:

Todays poem is set within the wandering through the thoughts of a mind that has a lot of wreckage scattered. Finding Faith in the midst of such thoughts can be an experience that one may yet write of. But then struggling through thoughts of Faith with a mind full of scattered thoughts and deeds etc, is a mine field on its own.

This is where I strived to find a poem that walks through such caverns of the mind. Basically, todays poem takes one through a few caverns of the mind for a wander and listen as it were to thoughts that come to the fore.

For a poet such as I, this Poem may be either a bust or a success. The choice is your as the reader of such. All too often confusing, we find such a wander to be one to avoid all too often.

Like other poem , there are times when not very much can be written that would explain the poem more OR further expand on thoughts. BUT it is in such times, I wander slowly through them searching for any little gems for thought. I however hope that you as reader find some things that would spin a few thoughts for you.

Having said all of this; Please Enjoy This Poem also I welcome any thoughts etc..

Wreckage of the Mind
 

By waters still, -- my soul doth find,
A peace that calms - this troubled – mind.
When the sea's of life, - thus vast and wide,
Sometimes be a stormy, - stumbling tide.


But there waiting arms,- they will embrace
And leading hands, still - yet guide with grace.
And define the path, - that I may see,
The divine way, the faithful and the free.


Dare to, yet cross o’er the line, As you must?
To leave disgrace, this mistaken life’s dust,
And walking by Faith, - as you’ve since sought,
To lose chains that bind, in heart, mind and thought.


In the caverns deep - of mind and heart,
Shadows dance, part of this wondrous art.
Dreams still weave - discharge their magic spell,
This beauty of life, always tales to tell.


And storms of the mind may rage on this stage,
But the wreckage of days litter this cage, 
Through troubles, pain or strife, and changed this Life,
Making old new  ne’er to review all strife.

ENDING THOUGHTS:

Thank you for following me on this journey, that is incomposing and creating poetry. If Life is a journey which we all walk on, then my journey in creating Poetry is a journey of it’s own. Which I still learn much on as I write.

At times I experiment on methods or way how I can improve my poetry, therefore getting feedback is always most welcome for such as these.

When I write poetry, some readers may be offended with something within the poetry. I do not write to offend, But such are written for reasons I outline in the posts. Often I miss typos and mistakes when publishing each poem. BUT I correct the moment I discover such mistakes.

But Poetry is a form of art work that I enjoy and thus using it in a manner to touch or inspire the reader.

I would like to Pass on my thanks to you for joining me on this journey.

Poetry is a learning curve where I always strive to improve. Often due to the speed of my typing and a few other issues, mistakes and typos will find their way into published posts. I continue to work on improving this as I move along. One such change is how I have been writing and how my poetry appears in relation to how the rest of the blog appears. So much work goes into editing and reediting and then repeating that process on a number of occasions until i am happy with the result.

Please forgive for any such mistakes and for your understanding this.
