In between, places yet unseen
Have you ever felt in between?
Excited to be places yet unseen?
Embarking on a new or scary venture?
But knowing that it’s right?
That is how I have been feeling today.
Take courage my friends and trust in yourself and your intuition.
In honor of National poetry month, here is my one and only poem.
This was written during a time of pondering faith and science in Feb. 2009
In between
Heaven, earth
Creator, creation
faith, manipulation
joy, exasperation
Belief, trust
hardened crust
They’ve seen the light
about to take flight
to places unseen,
somewhere in between
Bipedalism, microorganisms
evolution, pollution
surreal, secular appeal
be like me, trinity
cross symbolism
fleshly heroism
Glorified Gods
isolated pods.
They’ve seen the light
about to take flight
to places never seen,
somewhere in between.
Knowledge
realities foliage
“I think that was a poem, either way I love words.“

A really clever use of words. I’m no poetry expert by any stretch but I liked it!
Thank you so much. That means a lot to me. I was hesitant to post it.
I know what you mean, I felt like that about my last post. It’s so difficult to know what to post but I keep reading advice that just says to ‘be yourself’ so I figured that’s what I would do and hope for the best! Good luck.
Poets forego hesitation, dear poet…write the others
😀 That was nice. Thank you.
I think you are brave to share this – poetry is just a word – you get your thoughts down and across – that is what matters. If you don’t share your poems or writings, then they are just squiggles on a page in a dark place. Only by putting stuff ‘out there’ will you touch someone. Same with paintings etc etc. A thoughtful piece. I’m glad you shared it! Keith
Thanks Keith.
I will continue to put myself out there no matter how shaky legged I become before I hit the publish button!
I appreciate the encouragement.
Jennifer
Love it! Beautifully done.
*blush* Thank you kindly!
Ooooooh. Love the push, pull, and “open to interpretation” personality of the words you used. Poems (to me) are our perspectives of the emotion we’re jotting down. Whatever subject we’re inspired to write about can be beautifully, and descriptively written (as you did here) They rhyme…but not all the time. 🙂 Keep it up!
I did enjoy writing it. I think I will try writing more poetry. Thank you for your kind words. They inspire me!

Papizilla approved. New blogger here people, show her as much love as you all show me.
Thank you so much for the support. I can’t say it enough. 😀
Lovely words! confidence is key, even if your shy like me, poetry is subjective, even to the whole collective, keep on writing don’t be shy, and I’ll be sure to stop on by!
from one new blogger to another! 🙂 G:)
Nicely done!
Thanks for the support!
Jennifer
Love it.
Thank you kindly!
Love the way it reads, well done 🙂 xB
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
It was enjoyable
Why, thank you!
Like the level of intelligence that underpins your words and thoughts. It’s a poem – don’t apologize for. It, just put it out there. Nicely done.
Thank you Roy.
I appreciate it.
It was my first poem.
Jennifer
Glad you posted it. I already have a favorite moment:
This cluster in particular– tonic, staccato…
surreal, secular appeal
be like me, trinity
cross symbolism
fleshly heroism
Glorified Gods
isolated pods.
Mmmmmmmm.. 😉
Running Son,
This was my first and deepest expression in poetry.
This kind of writing is not always appreciated, understood or received.
I’m glad that you appreciate it. I thought you might like this one.
Jennifer
Damn straight Jennifer. Like you said in one of your posts, you never know what effect it is having on someone.

The Poem. This is where it all started. I took a chance, posted this one poem that I wrote in 2009 and you all encouraged me to continue to write poetry and here we are almost 2 months later and over 40 poems. Thank you for supporting and encouraging my writing. Jennifer
Jennifer
Beautiful! What I love about poetry is, you really have to think carefully and grab the right words right from your soul. You seem to have done that.
Thank you. It was where I started. 🙂
I like this very thought provoking w/o being pushy.
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
I am so glad others encouraged you and that you listened, you are talented and your words are powerful. I love words as well, for that reason, their power. They can create, they destroy…power…words have energy. I know exactly what you mean with that poem. 🙂
This is how I feel today too. 🙂
