Benjoy’s Corner 8 (Precious Time)

Failure to utilize time in advancement of life

Particularly one’s life, is an absolute tragedy

Of measurable and immeasurable dimensions.

Sorrow Not Beyond Sorrow’s Due

When situation occasions agony
And sorrow’s pain tends to linger on.
Forbear prolonged lamentation,
Lest in triumph it thrives and flourishes
Overcoming all avenues for joy within.
For the sorrow nurtured and kept alive
Forever as a companion tends to stays beside…
While that disposed of, in time, dissipates
Sparing more tears and anguish pronounced.
Nurture misery not, grief ‘s plan neither abet.
Truly, it is the soul, that despairs, that must
For its benefit, to hope eternal cling…
And the heart that in distressed anguish weeps
For its own plain relief, gladness must seek.
Thus within life’s brevity meant for all things
Extend not sorrow if it adventures near, that
It may not find habitation beyond its due…
But in earnest, room make for emotions pleasant,
Because ’tis when sorrow is bid farewell
That happiness, can fulfill its means and purpose
In joy’s delight and comfort, blossom free
Residing indeed amid inner solace and peace.

Benjoy’s Corner 6

The opportunity of a lifetime

Always, may not present itself

In the adornment of riches.

Nay, it may yet be revealed

Within the simplicity of the richness

Of other dimensions which earnestly attach

Value to life beyond calculated wealth.

Therefore, my friend attend to vigilance

That ye may recognize that bountiful boon

And open the door to fully embrace it

When it knocks in whatever form…

To transform your journey for the better.

Benjoy’s Corner (5)

Inherent in the essence of life’s constant motion

Is the constancy of change, second after second

No moment is in complete dimension,

The same as the past, present or future…

Therefore, as the changing times of existence

May accumulate into centuries of progress,

Earnestly regard change as part of human enterprise

Thus, make it count on your behalf…

And not as an obstacle.

Mystic Entity

Notions of the present
May simply amaze the past.
Even still, what the future holds
Certainly, may bewilder the present.

Yet, life surges forward in its form
Like the continuous motion with no end.
And, further through its elusive entity,
Its unknown essence, never failing to mystify,
Like the fading mirage, enhanced by distance
Whilst disappearing into the evening sun.

Nonetheless, its boundless beauty inspires
As it moves up the mountain tops,
And floats in gentle ripples across the seas.
Enticing, whence it springs forth in the meadows
Or from the blossoming delicate rose bud
Wherein life’s presence is apparent to see.

Even if the moment of the present
Is all that evident appears,
Life surely will stamp and distinguish
All of its times, be it the future or the past.
Thus, as it steadfastly moves along in plain sight
It may not be as mysterious as it seems.

The Gift

The treasure of time

Is purely inestimable.

For no earthly riches,

Can purchase moments past

Or bargain in futility the future.

Neither, can they, in vain venture

Extend the portion preordained.

Thus my friend…

With wisdom safeguard

Thine most precious blessing

Attending to it truly earnestly

And in all dimensions most prudently.

Our differences make a collage of beauty

Let us take precious time to behold  the wealth

And be inspired by the brilliance therein.
