Maybe Every Moment's Meant to Be

May 11, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is motherhood in honor of Mother’s Day, which falls on May 14.

Today’s poem is a Mother’s Day poem for a woman whose children miscarried.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Maybe every moment’s meant to be.
One chooses in the dark and takes a path
That leads one to the wonder of what is.
How might one see another’s hand in this?
Each choice was a prediction in the past,
Revealing only what one wished to see.
Here and now remains a mystery.
One watches from one’s rock-bound coast the vast
Ocean of experience and bliss,
Deeper than the heart, wind-sculpted, free.
