The big wide world stopped,
I forgot to get off
going a million miles an hour.
It spins out of control,
a blue sphere
among a billion brilliant diamonds.
If we desire humanity's success,
we need hope,
a light for the future of mankind,
in these lonely desolate times,
a compassionate heart
to console us in our darkest hours.
Will the world ever slow down,
or will we speed up
sending us on a path beyond the stars,
trying to eventually breathe
a little easier,
in a celestial meager existence.
Timothy Michael DiVito c2019
I have been writing poetry for 44 years. I began writing poetry when I was 15 years old and to this date I have written over 16,000 poems. I have had poems published in The San Fernando Journal, The Rag Mag, WYRD, The Cultural Reverence(e-magazine) and in Kiiroo(e-magazine), Mobius and the World Peace Anthology. I have over 1000 poems published in all. I also have a poetry page on Wix.com entitled anemotionaljourney.com. I also have written a Science Fiction/Fantasy novel entitled "The Blue Sphere" and I am currently working on two other books at the present time. One is entitled "The Angel and the Witches and the other is "Once Upon A Halloween"
