An Invite To The Universe

Our Producer and Director

I’m sending through an invite

To take that prized front row seat,

Watch as the production plays out

Starring two actors destined to meet.

***

Feel the tension swirling through the air

The audience swept up in emotions,

Being played out on the world stage

Partly across miles and miles of ocean.

***

The background music begins to build

As the separated couple wish and yearn,

Taking the time they’ve been given

To talk, laugh, open their hearts and learn.

***

The script has not yet been completed

The production is missing an ending,

Hence the invite sent through to you

Your thoughts and advice still pending.

***

They will need you to intervene

Remove all obstacles in their way,

The audience holds their breathe

Waiting for you to have your say.

***

It’s understandable you need time

There’s no rush as these two dance,

Learning, listening, growing closer

They are only asking for a chance.

***

They are fully prepared to accept

The consequences that arise,

If you choose to accept their invite

Of course there’s a lot to organise.

***

I will just leave the invite right here

For you to pick up and process at will,

I trust you’ll take the wisest path

And honour them with your goodwill.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.

    This one is a bit different for you... But still compelling and well written as always.
