Analogy of a poem:

Since Covid pandemic we all been to some level depress, but there’s always a light to reach at the  end of the tunnel… from a hidden cloud, there comes a rainbow to be seen, appreciated and color  our world. Its important to try to move on, despite the many difficulties and challenges we faced. 

It important these challenges don’t drown us.  We must all face it, and meet it, head on! 

This poem was written during a crisis. I do hope, it can reach you as it has reached me… 

This poem, I would like to share with you all.

We all know that poetry, drives and stares at the human eyes with intense feelings, because

 is the love from the hearts that speaks the truth, as music being universal to all homo sapiens… 

so is poetry. A poem can speak to you from one’s heart and experiences…  It can touch to all 

levels as is presented to be heard… everyone will have a different prospective of its interpretation. 

With poetry, I like to color your world. With this in mind, I want to bring to you this

What can one do to escape?

Should you search for a light?

Reach for a hand

Find comfort under some arms?

Commune with your soul! If you search for it…  It’s worth more than gold

Keep digging you’ll strike not silver

I guarantee–You’ll fi
