Serendipity

by Nicole Assenza

These tired eyes
No longer wonder
But maybe feign an interest
In what lies behind
A saintly face
Of cobwebs
Of vintage vines
Unvarnished, golden
Stylishly hiding such
Potency
Propensity for purity
Or poison
Bruise tinged eyes
Tired of watching
I turn a stone
And I find
My faith in you

Well, not with this 'faith'. This 'faith'can turn into a source of refined energies, making one eventually to start believing in one selve, on this evolutionary path, ever growing, ever ascending, attaining unseen heights. But only if one can stop projecting assumed situations.

This is a fantastic poem with a wonderful vision, Nicole. Making something from nothing is easy when you're given a good start and work from the bottom up. I like the title and the premise.
