If sight is absent there is no seeing
for if you cannot see, inspiration is lost
but in the moment when seeing is sight
the brilliance of epiphany can be, so
have you ever walked around a down pour
as the sun touches each cloud in the sky
when one stubborn cloud decides to open
causing the path taken to have obstacles like
a fork in the road the behest of nature
which way taken can be an unclear decision
as you ponder your options whilst the rain
continues a torrential current leading down
to flood the present way you’ve been on
know going through the direct is most difficult
even as prisms of light seem to pull you around
so have you ever circumvented a down pour
for there are times going through when on a quest
you miss the beauty you need to inspire

Lovely visions, Renee, even in the downpour! (Wishing us all more sunny, mild days before winter sets in.) Hope you’re having some good days. 🙂

I actually did walk my dog and in the middle of the sidewalk you could see that one cloud had decided to deliver a down pour of rain right in front of us. My dog was quite puzzled when I went around it. It wasn’t raining anywhere else. 🙂

Thinking this to be a philosophical discourse, I read it twice and it was just as wonderful the second time. Sometimes I’ve weathered the tempest full on to try to reach my goal – not always the best approach as you say Renee 😊

Much of my writing tends to be philosophical in nature. I have come to believe it is the way I am intended to be. Glad you liked the read.
