Poetry: The perfect moment meets the perfect point.

I was the browned off rose in the bunch, when out of my moment of love.

I searched long and hard to try to find, the perfect, perfect moment, of them all. I lost my way as there is no perfect point, to be found in any perfect moment of itself. We place the point into the moment. Otherwise, our moments have no point. Our mind tries to find the point of the moment, but it only finds just the past, or future points. The present moment of now only exists, in a heart linked to the infinite love in itself. Our soul must be in us for us to feel any real point in any real perfect moment. The moment of any moment is in itself, not in you. So, stop reaching from yourself to try to find it. It comes to you unbidden of course when you rest in it, with your perfect heart of love in God, in you. Photo Credit: The photo used here belongs to me, the author, of this piece. I was the browned off rose in the bunch, when out of my moment of love.

Embrace all the moments as meaningful in our journey, enjoy them all as worth the while. The ups and downs arise due our prejudices, fears, and when we view all as part of our journey then we course through life oiled by love and with peace in our hearts. The stress and strife we see around will be history the moment we get back to the basics.

Yes, the point of life is to be found in the basics, in the moment of our now.

@Shiva49 Does anything happen without such sowing though? Do animals sow, do we also unconsciously sow? I guess karma applies to the ignorant too, but perhaps doubly to the conscious bad sowers, sowing badly on purpose.

@innertalks Creation and nature remain inclusive but when we go astray, we are to be blamed only for what we have sown.

@Nakitakona We have roses all over, in the back, the front, even at the sides of our house. It is one of our favourite plants.

Thanks. I like to write this type of poetry too, when I am in the mood to do so. Usually, I need something to stimulate me, as this rose did this morning, when I saw it in my garden.

Thanks. I took that photo from my garden this morning, and I noticed one slightly already browned rose in the bunch.
