Human Commensalism
Those who grace the earth are believed to leave footsteps awry,
For no one is truly perceived to be plenary,
Except under the Creator's protective eye,
For if she fiercely demanded for a quick glance at a counterfeit of her own,
The surface of rivers would marvel at such a reflection, they had never come to know,
And if she desperately yearned for an impulse that would fuel her creativity,
The dimmed radiance of the sun drowning off in the horizon, would channel its artistry,
And if she struggled to fill the void of solitude that persistently annihilated her each day,
The whispering wind would deliver its counsel, sagacious in what he would say,
If she ever fantasized about what it would resemble to be entranced by such musicality,
The harmless cluster of birds would gladly produce her a song, and burst in its joviality,
And if she ever longed and coveted for the warmth of her mother's desirable embrace,
The sun would open its arms, and extend the welcoming projection of its rays,
If she ever thought the world conspired against her, and was the source of her own strife,
He gave her a reason that till today we call the very precious breathe of life,
For the world triggers all our human needs that the heart strongly endeavors to expose,
And the earth rotates to the melodious rhythm that our vital organs do compose.
The world operates to assuage the very depth of our souls,
And our souls lack fulfillment of nurturing the earth’s central core.
Poet's Note _______________________________________
ANYWAYS, hope you all enjoy this new edition. I was inspired to write this poem at 4:00 am. Crazy right? I guess the significance behind this poem is that the world offers us so much more than we can percieve with our own eyes. We have to look and think beyond visuals. You can't live life believing it's your worst enemy. The world is your rock. Your support system. We have to look at matters, and all that surrounds us in a much more positive nature and approach situations with more optimism. We have to appreciate everything around us, because it is simply at our service. This poem suggests that we must see the beauty in the simple things that the world presents us. We must never take things for granted.
