#poem, «Imagination and Purpose»

(«Imagination» Francisco Bravo Cabrera/Bodo Vespaciano/All Rights Reserved)

Truth be told,

truth be said,

truth be damned…

But truth is spread like lightning on a darkened, stormy sky,

creating spectacles of light,

displaying power, strong, but somehow most sublime.

But here on Earth:

The blues have become ochres,

reds melted into greys,

the yellows disappeared into the fading haze,

while greens rebounded from the blackened walls,

where whitish lines recede,

and orange is the light from heaven,

I think it’s quite agreed…

Purpose is a glass half filled,

a detour one half empty,

imagination is pure bliss,

purpose is what’s intended.

No man can change the history

for what he was pretended,

so let us stop and think

before our life is ended.

C.2024, Francisco Bravo Cabrera – 29/05/2024 – Valencia, Spain

    La vida cambia constantemente y si no nos tomamos un momento para adaptarnos a ellos, la vida nos pasará por encima. Un buen poema Francisco.
