[hometext] => So much uncertainty in the world right now, but we will endure. My first post in a while, I wish it were under better circumstances. Hopefully Corona Virus will soon be a memory
[bodytext] => Draped in uncertainty, the world echoes in the unknown Asks questions where there is no answer Seeking guidance where the path is obscured The fabric of society, torn, begins to unravel An army, unready for the fight, draws up diminished battalions Scared minds resist logic, sensibility ebbs away We stumble blindly into the future Paralysed by that we cannot see Those who we follow cannot lead We are all painted with the same fear Waiting for a solution borne from hope more than calculation Time marches, has no regard for us now Puppets to a plague that blankets out all we once knew Man, the wounded animal, has nowhere to run Takes refuge inside four walls that now become prison Watching the world from a distance, waiting for absolution While the songbird sings to empty audience And the cold wind blows against the quiet of the day The storm will take what it can, but not all For now we are passengers, we can only count the ghosts [comments] => 5 [counter] => 157 [topic] => 48 [informant] => puppy_dog_eyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
