Past the overgrown garden, over the leaf strewn
ground beneath autumn ash and oak, beside
the dried muck that was once a swampy marsh,
the backside of the dump exults in forgetful
riches.
Whether the parachutist without a
ripcord, the noble chef with few
recipes and fewer ingredients, the storyteller
turned writer whose thesaurus
burned for kindling, abandon lingers;
full emotional release exercised in disregard.
Reluctant fallacy, ignored truth, abashment
masquerading unconcern, the totality of abandon
must be blessed, sheer expose' on "discontrol", yielded
forgetfulness, disappointment uncurtailed, throw
these and more in the melting pot.
Problems isolate; harried and nagged
fantasy of release take us into abandon. Part
courage, yet full of restless energy, ennui
inspired with a healthful supply of failure,
and sickening sweet success thrown in; emerging
abandon brings healing beyond personal
efforts of effectiveness, satisfaction, truth, law,
notion or fallacy.
Bless abandon! Call sin out, whisper divine mysticism,
clamor of human grappling. Ever close abandon,
bless the journey to the distant place
that is near at hand.

Well Done!!
wow it is like what i did this weekend, we went through and tossed out a bunch of old belongings and found some hidden treasures i am unwilling to "abandon". this is so complicated i will need a dictionary for some of this but i feel the meaning in it just the same, awesome
Devine! Inspiring! Hopeful! :) Love it, let me read it again...
'fantasy of release take us into abandon' magic dear larryg, absolute magic!
"Bless the journey to the distant place that is near at hand." A powerful ending, Larry. Brilliant!
I absolutely love reading of your weekly "bless"ings; they really make me stop and ponder your message. :)
ps. bonus smile on my face when I see one of my photos has been chosen to accompany your beautiful words!
