On a nimbus, perched

My story

By RiddlePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

hidden beneath shallow waters

mindless wanderers see you not

floating on a nimbus

angel of practiced thought

ticking clock of aimlessness

a shadow of self-pity

high time for high tide

no longer lost in the city

wind churning jungles

clap of thunderous victory

forever an auspicious masterpiece

a painting throughout history

in every gleam, every seam

catered fabric self woven

here is my story

a diamond well-chosen

no longer I wait

skipping to my own tune

beat firm and steady

away with the gloom

beauty in seconds passing

risen perspective of ocean debris

tenacious hero’s timeless classic

floating above all thee

intent on due north

guidance from a shama’s song

roaring heart called to port

flaming wings beating on

inspirational

About the Creator

Riddle

Every morning I look naked into the mirror and repeat, "I love, appreciate, and accept myself exactly as I am."

Love is the cure to this maddening, chaotic world. Show it to yourself, for it will ripple into your reality abundantly.
