A glance at patience

User Rating:

9.4 /10
(54 votes)



  Patience unlike imagination
Rushes not wind like only to butt
Against the mountain of senses
That bars the way unwended
And leave me my yearning wonder
How to quit this haunt of brooding dust

And let the real resume life's pilgrimage
But chick like in the egg of desire
Lets Time churn to change shell for soaring wings,
Charmed from changing for homing flight,
Scaling, suffer no failing or falling,
Where the Ultimate calls His exile home.

wow. very deep i admire yur sense of thought. unlike my unorganized thinking.

I enjoy the use of almost strange phrasing in this poem. I think this poem is about dreaming and imagining only to feel the gravity of life and reality pulling you back into the 'realness'of life. The bird is always the symbol of escape or of spirit in the Jungian analysis. The egg is the sense of inadequacy or lack of confidence which contains the fledgling who must leave the protection of nacent life and make its way on the winds which are unpredictable but soaring is joy and adventure and the egg must be left behind in order to experience the program of life which is always nearing its end and closer to the ultimate. In other words we must (you must) live in order to discover the limitless sky.
