Of Soul & Plead But Mercy... (A Poem)

​

Of deep & dark matter,

Of lost & seldom reason,

Of energy & positivity,

Of love on the scale of enlightenment,

Where do we fall on this road of no end?

Where do we stop to enjoy the view?

Why must we stop to ponder our existence?

Why must we brink past the laws of reality?

In times of lacking truth,

Our voice of deep confides,

Of soul & plead but mercy,

We find our longing way,

But now today we see,

Strong blessings of tomorrow,

Just cause of plight and karma,

As we hover above the day,

I'm grateful for this gift,

Of daily morning breeze,

Of smiles and joy,

The gifts of life,

That a penny cannot buy.

Today will be the day,

Of which I'll find my way,

I'll start by saying thank you,

Walking out into the sun....

-Joseph Rothvogel
