~Beckoning Cliff

Allure of thoughts,mind's freefall

Standing in the lofty heights,
Of overflowing thoughts..
The alluring cliff beckons at me
To leap,with a savage urge!!

Giving in to the wild Me;
I dive into intellectual depths...
Bidding Au revoir to pragmatic self.

Weightless words....
Freefalling flairs....
I await the rock hard bottom
Of insufferable crags.....

Greeted by my mattress of contented clouds...
Lulling me to a peaceful slumber,sans doubt...

My winged perceptions fly in this realm of majestic profundity....
Seeing this my fervent soul smiles with immense alacrity...

Author's Note

Can't give up this urge to leap!! Enjoy!! ;)

I again really enjoyed this poem. There is nothing I find solace in more than to dive into the ocean of my mind and just swim to the depths. For there is so much that the mind holds, we just have to have the right gear to search below the service. When we search hard enough and long enough, we really find hidden treasures that were always there, we just needed to salvage by the crane of peace and quiet. On the other hand, there are times when we have everything that we need, and we search and search, and there is just nothing to be found, where we are searching. No treasurable thoughts come up from below and we are left frustrated for the lack of new treasures. Sorry about the long review, this really is intriqueing what you have written and I just had inspiration to also give my own perspective of how I look at diving into our intellectual thoughts. Thanks for sharing, this was truelly a great writing.

Did you ever walk up
To the edge of a cliff
Stare into the abyss
As your mind wonders if

You should take one more step
Further into that night
Well your mind says you won't
But your heart says you might

Would you fall through the dark
Feel the wind in your hair
Would you embrace the ground
And end your life right there

Or would god reach his hand
And that moment you fly
Or if he chanced to blink
And then, that moment you die

Well actually that isn't mine, though I wish it were… it is from a song called "Epiphany" by Trans Siberian Orchestra… you should check it out… your great poem reminded me of it and since I couldn't find the words to say how I felt about the poem I shared them.

[Sophy Freebirds]

It is like a precipice I agree when you are all muddled up and see everything from above and you had enough. All of a sudden seemingly out of nothing clarity of view comes about and something inside of us expands understanding takes over and you start wondering how did you spend time feeling all wound up on something that was so simple. It seems that intellect helps but in the end is limited as what is contained in that moment of understanding you cannot claim wholeness. Maybe is like a vase moment if your half gets filled the other half will come to meet it? Why? Whom? Does it matter if you can put a name t it?

Great moment was captured

Thankyou
