Ten Days of Reflection, day three – The Orchid Opens

in #poem7 years ago

An original poem

A sneeze, a blessing, “Bless you.”
Then, a happy in store a greeting, “May you be blessed again.”

An awkward stare, “And who are you to be blessing me?”

“May you be blessed by God then.”

“But I don’t believe in God.”

Then, “May you have all you have ever dreamed of.”

“That sounds like a curse, I’ve dreamed of a lot of things I would never want to have happen.”

We both laugh...

Smile sweetly, nothing more needs to be said.
Appreciate the person who puts your groceries into your bag.
There is a place where blessings happen without any words.
The gift of the whole universe.
A place beyond any religion or personal belief.

Such a wonderful idea sir..

Dear Nature...I love you so Much....

"Of everything I have seen,
It's you I want to go on seeing:
of everything I've touched,
It's your flesh I want to go on
Touching.
I love your Orange laughter.
I am moved by the sight of you
Sleeping.
What I to do, love, loved one?.
I don't know how others love
or how people loved in the past.
I live, watching you, loving you.
Being in love is my nature."

Well, what I insinuate/deduce from your poem is that there's too much emphasis on religion before good is done; but that good should be natural, it is natural. I have believed in God all my life, it's difficult not to now but I imagine religion does cloud our vision, we need to do some introspection. Your views about God do not appear to be mainstream. Resteemed.

Introspection is a wonderful gift, I feel very fortunate to have time for prayer and meditation. I think religions do open doors for us but it is up to us to go through them so to speak. Thanks for commenting and the support!
