Distant Approach.
How far is near?
Wheeling towards destiny
yet out of reach invokes merciless heat.
Apart is near
when approach is completed.
Can two pathways cross and yet never meet?
Stars flashing lights are no brighter than ours.
Two planets
arrange to draw closer than this.
Speeding roads
dissipate feeble heart's call.
We know though that fate out-distances all.

Destiny always interests me so much. Your questions open up so many thoughts in my mind as your imagery sparks off ideas. Your last line is a triumph!

I had not read your poem until now and had already written one about "My Destiny". Humm? God works in mysterious ways Fay. God bless

I adore the word play and linguistic treasures in this thought provoking piece, Fay...and I love the wisdom vested in the closing line. A delight! :)

"How far is near?" Sometimes it's closer than we think. Carl Jung thought that all chance events were meant to be. But your poem Fay shows how fate can out manouvre us. Excellent poem.
