Moods

Moods

 

I join each day in the flow of its current

Compatible or not I try to adjust myself

The day often conflicts with my waking mood

I walk along a darkened corridor

Feeling my way with uncertainty

I welcome the unexpected yet cherish routine

Spontaneity can disturb or delight

Outside I embrace sun, shower or rain

Only the wind aggravates my soul

I react, respond with little thought

Only when alone am I the author of originality

Capable of constructed intelligent ideas

I greet the night and a prayerful end

As the shadows carry me into a new realm of being

Beyond wind, corridor, gloom or mood

Keith,

The concept that we exercise little to no control over chance is well presented. The line "Feeling my way with uncertainty" reminds me of how I move through my house before dawn, when the lights are out, and only hands and feet know the way. "Only the wind aggravates my soul" - oh yes, there is the force that we must reckon with. At the tail end of the poem - reflection, rest, and summation. I do so like this piece. Universal, I would say.
