You chase future dreams like A cheetah hunting gazelle. Your trophy only in sight Waving the present farewell. Your lofty goal has become A snare to your very soul. Always dreaming and dreaming But never living to feel whole. Chad A. Damitz

Poem: Which Season Is This?
Look at that quaking aspen Dancing in the breezy sky. Soon it’s leaves will turn gold As the starry summer grows old. Look up at that dark-eyed Junco Singing among crisp blue mountains.

Poem: Dawn Arise
Dawn is surely near But dusk entraps the soul. A twilight world of fear An infinite black hole. I do hear red birds sing. The rainbow truly gleams. But circumstances sting Shattering untold dreams.

Poem: The Cosmos Within Your Soul
Take a deep breath... And think about the cosmos. Planets encircling the sun. Galaxies spinning for centuries. Supernovas bursting in boundless measure Why you sit and rotate on this pale blue dot. Now breathe out... You are more than stardust. They are in awe of your soul. Created in the image of God. The pinnacle... Continue Reading →
