WHERE IS THE MAGIC- ALEXIS KARPOUZOS

poem by: Alexis Karpouzos
Written on Sep 01, 2019

Where is the magic?
We all start out knowing magic. 
We are born with hurricanes 
and whirlwinds, oceans 
and galaxies inside us.
We are able to sing to birds 
and read the clouds 
and see the destiny 
in grains of sand.
But we have forgotten the magic 
and we feel without compass, 
alone and desperately, 
only selfishness, only pain, 
fear and darkness.
But, magic of love has never 
disappeared from the life, 
the love hold the life.

Yes we are able to sing to the birds of the air and maybe they can sing their songs back to us? We can read the clouds and predict the weather without meteorologists at least sometimes? We may be able to see our destiny's in the sand but we are unable to count their grains of sand but then again--only God really can!
