Intuition

Life continues to surprise me

despite acceptance of the inevitable.

 

I wonder how Hope walks

Carrying the lamp for Life behind it,

treading on corpses of Trust.

 

The miracle of respiration

in the ever-changing direction of winds.

 

I look back on my solitary footprints

And gaze wide-eyed at the conquered mountain peaks.

Who carried me through it all?

 

Calling out enemies, backstabbers and traitors,

I continue to seek companionship.

 

I am in awe of the sailing ship.

Navigating its way through the sea of Power and Greed

but staying afloat till it meets an anchor.

 

The undercurrents of Faith surprise me

in the overarching theme of Existence.

 

Here, I have dealt with a number of emotions, and theie inter-relatedness. This is a poem published in Com Pen Di Um
