Thoughts.....My thoughts........

My thoughts are as a leaf tossed on the currents of the turbulent winds.

Lifted and tossed with no thought for where the final fall will be.

One moment being lifted high as if to go on and on

The next being shunted down with brutal force, only to be snatched

From a devastating end at the last conceivable moment.

Some currents just carry forward, drifting softly this way or that

In even motion swaying ever so reassuring and comforting.

Breezes swiftly moving and bringing the realization that this

Is a familiar place, that has been visited before.

My thoughts are as the wind, changing at any given moment.

One moment soft as a caressing touch, evoking sensual feelings.

The next raging like the wildest of storms leaving chaos and devastation

In the path of the exhausted storm. Some wreckage never to rebuild.

My thoughts are as the smooth surface of water, being affected by

The smallest most subtle events. Anything from the throwing of

A stone to the falling of a leaf lightly disturbing the surface.

Disguising most frequently the life that exists in the depths below

Keeping safe that which finds refuge there in.

My thoughts are as the sun shine with its rays bringing light

Comfort and warmth. At times dissuaded by clouds of storms

Either on the horizon or dispersing after the long dark night

My thoughts are as eyes with a depth that is not always visible

The way you look and what you are looking for determines

What you see or what may be seen.

They can be shadowed by pain or glowing with pleasure

Having a story to tell all their own for one seeking to find

At times trying to hide other times pleading to be found

Always in any situation longing for acceptance
