Oceanic Currency…

Poetic Journey in Personal Discovery

Oceanic Currency…

Aside

I’ve grasped a sand dollar in my hand,
An unwilling passenger abducted by the waves.
I marvel at its masterful perfection,
Grateful the traveler has come my way.

Such amazing beauty discovered,
Oceanic gem, born of a powerful sea.
Delicate survivor of elemental perils,
A testament to God’s sublime artistry.

Well, if you hadn’t already hooked me, this one would do it–I LOVE it, love anything about the sea. Thank you for the lovely gift.

  You are? Can’t blame you. Working on another piece I may post tomorrow- on a bit of an ocean kick. Glad you liked it.

What a ride thus far. A “journey”, if you will. The ups and downs, hard falls, and grace-filled recoveries have painted quite an image. Abstract art, though it may be, there is a rhyme and a rhythm, a heartbeat, and a pulse. The mix of colors, lights and shadows, three-dimensional electricity… the random strokes and thickness of paint tell such a story. God-willing, I keep breathing with purpose, and continue to create art with the help of my Creator. I’ve taken an extended break from this blog (today is 3/5/20), and upon my return I am seeking to add new poetry and perhaps revise some of the thoughts and ideas within my older writings. I seek to express truth. I praise God for the renewal of my mind! (Romans 12:2). I will revise or delete as I feel lead. I see the poetic expressions herein as reflections of my emotions, circumstances, enemy influences, pain, temptation, and even substance abuse- ALL PART OF MY JOURNEY. I do not seek to hide the parts of my journey that have brought me closer to my Maker, but I encourage all assertions in my poems be checked against the Truth of the Word. I desire to share light and hope, which I recognize more brilliantly now after walking through the darkness. “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.” Proverbs 16:3
