I’m no oracle
I’m no seer
To tell future
Get to it near
Read the omens
Mask my mind
In these eyes
Heart you find
Destiny I know
Waits for me
Yet not time
For me to see
Just I go on
Trying and true
Future appears
Clearly in view

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.

Nice one! I love how the last word of a sentence rhymes with the last word on the sentence 2 lines down!

Love the opening line: I'm no oracle". There is a beautiful humility, a sense of wonder right there in just a few words! And then the idea of "mask" becomes like a powerful persona!

Your poem has a very nice flow to it. For some reason I am thinking of an old Blood, Sweat and Tears song. Go figure. I also like the first line "I'm no Oracle". And, if only the future were that clear. Well done!

beautifully written verses… reading you after a long time… it was refreshing 🙂
Its nice, Leo. Isn't it nice to hide behind your eyes, just let the good 'you' come through…Yes, this was a Halloween party costume the Mrs. Jim came up with. I hesitated using it because everything is masked, masks we tend to think of mask our countenance…
Lovely verses as always Leo. Nicely written.
So many possibilities, it can be difficult to choose – until experience, hopefully, points us in the right direction.
