For a long while I walked
with you by my side
only to realize
that our paths will never cross
Enjoy the view
my friend
this is all
you will ever have

When We Walked Together

Imperfect
The landscape lay before me like a painting.
If there could ever exist a perfect painting, that is.But no human creation could possess such beauty.
Such blend of form and function.
None.Taking it all in, I saw the final photograph in my mind’s eye.
A beautiful piece of art, able to stir in the viewers heart,
the same emotions that I felt inside me.
A frozen moment in time,
capturing forever the brilliance of the scene before me.It pained me though, to realize that I could never make that happen.
How could I ever capture the grandness of it all?
The smell of moss in the air.
The sound of grass rippling in the water by the gentle breeze.
Then softness of the ground.No matter how good the gear,
or how advanced the tools,
I would not succeed.
No, a photograph would be but a poor portrayal of my experience
of nature’s magnificent spectacle -
The Mountains That We Climb
In life, we all have our mountains to climb.
Our bidding is to keep going, even when times are grim.
With prayers and effort, and a firm belief.
We long for that breathtaking view from the summit.Once there, we may realize,
little do we understand the grand scheme.
Such unexpected is life,
that it never ceases to amaze and surprise. -
The Dreams We Never Had
Sometimes in life, we have dreams.
Some can be achieved if we work really hard,
pray from our hearts,
and are fortunate enough to have just that extra bit of fate on our side.Some are so big, we know they’ll always be outside our reach.
Yet we hope, and we pray.
And we carry them inside us, safeguarding them as the years pass by.Sometimes in life dreams come true.
It may not be the ones we expected,
or knew even existed.
We find ourselves on top of a mountain we never climbed.
