Seeking the Divine
A Love Poem
Grounded on a stone-born precipice rock peaks poke a lacy white canopy fog stills the billowing bustle below lulling my soul to drift to find what’s true out of view.
Longing for you as you hide below many leagues apart, the grace of my dreams the one who owns my heart.
Romantically fooling ourselves mistakingly finding truth for only what’s to see depriving senses from believing visions yet unseen.
All that lies beneath, now asleep in fathoms deep giant leaps of hope.
Believing in you — not knowing if you believe in me too, loving you, doubting you feel the same, in silent leaps of faith toward the unseen.
As stated by sages, timeless and timely, as above, so below; as below, so above.
For love is muted blues and gray, undefined misty and vague with just tints of yellow hue within view just as this sea of fog that hides our clear view.
A poetic tale of a “Wanderer above the Sea of Fog” by Caspar David Friedrich, in response to the writing prompt from Jonny Masters at the Poetry Playground.
