Poetry from John Edward Culp

We rode
      the same storm cloud 
                           together 

and  the Draft caught 
        your guard down 
              when I resisted 
                    the fullness 
                         of the moment 

 I   LOVE  Ours

        It  is  who  We  are
&  I am  still  in  the  Dark 
      entering  the Light 
as   is   often   our   path 

       and 

I'm  included in our happiness 

      that Absolute closure will 
Always  Leave  some feet
                 in the door 

Like  We need more Sales people 

           I  guess 
              that's  why 
                   it  never ends 

The Future always knocks at
                   the door 

        and   if    I   resist 
              the  hinge pins  Lift

                            fall  to  the  floor 

          I  am  convinced 
          My Locks can't stop 
                  What I feel inside 

Let the winds carry 

                I  see   that

    &  that   is new   to me.

                thank you

We rode
      the same storm cloud 
                          together 
&  Like  one  droplet  of  water 
Breaks the stunning Light 

turned to drain its brilliant Breath 
                 to say   hello  with colors

     I  can  carry  the  moment 
                      in  my  heart 
          to see only the future 
                where  I AM
                     always rising

  1. I am convinced
    My Locks can’t stop
    What I feel inside

    Let the winds carry

    So energetic journey of love that stared from the same storm cloud together to see the rising future, knocks at the readers’ door also. Excellently penned.

  2. ” I am still in the Dark
    entering the Light … ” – very deep and insightful. Thank you for the poem!!!! It often happens that you are so blinded by the light that you see only the dark, or because you are stuck in the dark, you only see it. How good that there are fire people who serve as our guides in our long tunnel of life. Nice to meet you John. Everything you do is IMPORTANT! Thank you for existing.
