Poetry: Now is Your Time, SHINE

by Alfred Joseph Poet4Christ

· Poetry

There hides a Star in Start

That makes all Starters Stars

As there are etched in many a heart

Stories of glories, veiled by silent scars.

When nights of uncertainty falls

Stars twinkle with glamorous smiles,

Beam diligent rays; When duty calls,

Like an army they rise, subduing miles.

When Life’s storm hard hit

Vultures hide, while eagles rise;

Raw gold go through intense heat

Before its Brilliance stuns all eyes.

Why sit on the sickening seat of self-pity

And whine about like a starving swine,

When with the airworthy wings of wisdom

You can, like the eagle, soar into stardom?

Why hide behind the dark cloud of obscurity

When bright rays of popularity beckons;

Why merely exist as an ordinary entity

When an Extraordinary You can be awakened?

It’s time to Shine!

Many mistakes you might make,

And a thousand risks you will take,

Flaunt the broken walls of your scars,

‘til thro’ its crack, success seep like stars.

Though odds have you in its claws

And Life’s music hits an abrupt pause

Boldly turn the stories of your flaws

Into something that receives applause.

Let your Light seamlessly shine,

Till it glows with a glorious burst

That get men boozed with the wine

Of your impact; Emotions in full gust.

Let your Light brilliantly beam

Let it radiate and like wildfire spread

Power men’s cold hearts with the steam

Of your Success Story; Tell it like a creed.

Let your Light sparkle,

Let it gleam, let it glisten

Be that outstanding Oracle

Who speaks and men listen.

Let your Light slowly shimmer,

Its ray transmit and warmth radiate

Be the sought after soft sun of summer

To which all nation and Kings gravitate.

Let your Light ubiquitously ooze,

Silently seep and excellently exude

Radiant rays of stunning confidence

That make eagles out of a golden goose.

It’s time to let your light glow

Show the world what you’ve got

Rivers of regret, let it go, let it flow

Into the endless ocean of memories.

You’re invincible, unbreakable,

You’re like a diamond cut to last

You possess the energy of a rocket

Get ready to blast incredibly fast.

Your glow, like nature stays

You burn, not like the hays

Only keep your brand pure

And your light will endure.

Like the sun at dawn

It's time to rise, and Shine!
