My Rock
Fifield:
Look, I'm just a geologist. I like rocks. I love rocks! Now, it's clear you two don't give a shit about rocks... ---PROMETHEUS 2012
On a hilltop, a grayish-orange horizon engulfing the land,
I could barely see peeking the light above,
the ominous turf conceals the mist,
My feet stand on a boulder, drench, where I met
Igneous, Metamorphic and Sedimentary rock,
the cradle of their birth, riddled with cryptic epistle.
How the world stands aground and afloat?
How statuesque are their expanse unveil?
The grandiose formation exemplify its beauty,
an echoing color reflects from the sun,
but the graze etched in its form,
venture can be notably perilous,
it breaths peril imperceptible to its grandness.
My soul doth magnify The Rock,
a gentle, meek, amiable Jah,
even the sole of footing rest in Him
unharmed, unveiling the sanctuary of oneness.
As formidable as the mountain,
My foot will not be dashed by a stone,
how lovely is Thy soul and my Rock!

Excellent composition, kuya! Parang re-birth lang! Mala science na may pagkamystic ang peg!
Halos close sa mystic pero hindi ehehe... Thanks Jerryl!
Reading your poem, I found myself near these rocks, sitting peacefully.
I feel the same way sir siddartha!
Superb poetry @iwrite! I love the flow, it says it all!

Wow! This is amazing tito. Para sa akin ba to? Chos! Haha. I loved it. Great work! Upvoted and resteemed.
Naalala mo noong nag-usap tayo about Prometheus... Biglang naisip ko about rock. Since ikaw lang ang-nag-aaral bilang soon to be geologis (I love rocks), hayan na ang tula para sa iyo mam! ehehehe... Weee...
I'm touched sir. It's gonna make me cry. Thank you so much po, tito!
Always my pleasure, krizia. There there...
How majestic Thy creation is!!
The earth couldn't stand without this...
It's hard to fathom a world without rock!?
Unfathomable beyond compare... hahaha :D
@iwrite, Beautiful, simply beautiful. I felt like I was walking barefoot on the rock, It makes us stop and take notice of stones that too often lay unnoticed as we walk on by.
I like the scenery when I wrote the first line, it's vivid, the feeling, the excitement, everything in it. Thanks for dropping by mrs.digitalgold
