A New Portrait...


There comes a time when
all seems calm and serene
something one longs for
moments of gentleness within

Longing for a peaceful thought
a quiet construction of gold
one lingers in the moment
thoughts how it's maintained

So many take life for granted
that it is what it is - or is it
does one have to follow the
given path as to what shall be

Thinking  not - time moves on
dreams of what shall be develop
not wanting to settle colors change
brush strokes design a new portrait...

new paths for all to claim as their own
