Small Symphonies Poem

Take life by the reins

Seems to be common saying for most

Is it an array of things we long for

Or is it a specific taste

Of pleasure or pain, depends who you are

And what’s hurt you before

Is only a scratch now

Subtle sounds of night

Are enough to calm the senses

Heighten the sense that

The world may be burning

But it also shines brighter with

The million stars sparking in the sky, asking to be claimed

Nothing is enough but so is everything

In racked twilight skies, the several vibrances battling

For absolute dominance as the light,

The main source of color, begins to

Fade and diminish

Leaving its younger but ethereal other side

All aligned, synchronized and perfect

Fireflies and Christmas light

Just glow but they spread

Their uniqueness to people

Who have lost interest in looking long ago

Simply observing the music of the night is worthwhile in itself

Providing a comfort without words

When language would break the delicate harmonies

That might shatter otherwise

Their purpose is a simple one, yet so endearing

That it ignites a need and an unruly desire...to live.

Live in the truest aspect

Life is full of wrong but to

Harness chaos is to find that peace.
