It All Makes Sense
Written by: Patriotic Poet 10-7-2021

It All Makes Sense
I feel the beauty there is in life
I feel the darkness too
awareness lies deep within
I know what I must do
I taste the sweetness of joy in life
I taste the bitterness also
savor the treasures given each day
a thankfulness I try to show
I smell the fragrance of a gentle flower
I smell the acrid stench
cleanse the earth before it’s too late
lest sinister deeds entrench
I see the joy in someone’s face
I see the pain within
anguish is not for the innocent
devoid of any sin
I hear the melody of the soul
I hear the agonizing cries
music lingers in old souls
I see it in ones eyes
I touch the heart of angels above
I touch the depth of deprivation
faith and prayer are a saving grace
the only road to salvation
