Forbidden Places by Patrick Jennings

Forbidden

to me because I can not walk.

Forbidden

to me because I can not fly.

Forbidden

to me because I live on earth.

Forbidden

to me because I am far away.

but…

my soul circles that great

mountain.

Flies like a Condor that has lost its

way.

For in my soul absolutely nothing

of spirit is

forbidden.

I have been writing all my life but for the most part, it has been a secret. My parents did not believe writing was a good way to earn money so I hid my poems. Then one day, I wanted to comment on an essay that a friend had written and found myself with a blog. That quiet whisper inside said, "You can write your poetry and no one will ever know.". I knew nothing of followers and the like at that time. So, here I am trying to learn my craft and enjoying every moment of it. My personal details are, I'm 57, married for 39 years, have one grown son who is God's gift to us and last but not least at all, I'm a Baha'i which basically means that I love all humanity.

  1. Uh huh😉. So if you could walk you would go mountain climbing Ma’ame? 😃.

    Love you! I do like the idea of the soul climb, flight and of a soul walk. For the soul does Not need a body for all things. That’s a Good thang!! 😄
