The Speed of Wonder
Stanza I: a poem for anyone feeling bustled by Monday. 🏃🏻♀️:)
And suddenly, you're running.
Hit the ground -
you're racing,
nothing still or slow around...
embracing chaos,
chasing day-loss,
placing far behind the speed of light,
and love,
and sound.
Freeze your footsteps
(for a moment),
should you resist the need to run...
little birdie,
in a hurry,
be still and watch the setting of the sun:
you can finish up tomorrow
what today you've left undone. 💫

I consider myself a poet of "uplifting style", and most of work contains an inspirational message. :)
I haven't quite decided if this poem is finished or if I want to continue with more stanzas. However, my poems take me quite a while to write and I've therefore decided to start posting them - stanza by stanza - as I finish them. :) I really hope you enjoyed this inspirational poem. 🥰 Please let me know what you think! ❤️

It starts with love.. The Power to the God Of War and Wealth Walk into a Chinese restaurant (even in Oklahoma, USA), a Chinese police station, a kung fu martial arts studio or even a Chinese temple and you often see a red faced warrior holding a heavy quan-do (spear like weapon).

This is excellent! I loved the way you used the hurried pace in the beginning and then moved to the slower, relaxed pace at the end. Loved the message, too.
I felt the frantic chaos in this but then the 'whew' some of it can wait until tomorrow, just relax a moment. Great writing and message :)
