The Night’s Wings

 

 

 

I left Walden Pond
and met you near the wood
you stood between
the moss and morning
in the shadow of the crest

there was a moment
one moment
where I could sense
more than I could see
my vision altered
by the pure completeness
I felt in loving thee

what sense- this sensibility?
worth a mere mortals thought-
if timelessness
not past through
with life’s full measure
left unsought

most travelers find no rest –
on such a road
without formal bedding
said I to the Raven –
“Call the night,
and this forest becomes my heaven.”

Visits Worth Taking

 

Here are two sites worth visiting today.   I am usually not one that posts sites to visit but both of these really held a message for me:  

The first one is Lyrics and Maladies  - an incredible piece there called Dones Capped - I  love all of Joaquin’s work , but this piece really hit me in the heart and from the comments left there I can see I am not the only one.

The second site is Just Writing Words - and to tell you the truth I never viewed this site before today, but with the three pieces on the front page I was greatly impressed and personally love the poem titled Torn.  Most of us have had our souls battered or bruised at sometime in our life and this piece seemed to sum up that experience for me.

Perfect Prose -

 

 

 

 

 

We all seek perfect prose and compliments the same
Gathering all our perfection for our earthly gain
We all seek perfect pitch that what we sing be true
And the world will take a look and say
Wow, who are you?

But perfect is not always the most perfect thing to do
And compliments never last the way you want them to
So do your best this very day and welcome what is given
And compliments give them away
That is perfection under heaven –

Brave’s New World

 

The history has past from calling you brother

Today you look beyond the time of the setting rays

And walk much closer to the window of the newest century

 

Not always so – willing to look so forward

There were only the memories of winters behind

The smell of spring in the first thaw

 

Time’s meaning had a greater meaning then

You watched the herds for signs of movement

You listened closer to the wind’s words

 

Voices today all melt together carrying no song

The sun still sets on the western horizon

The wolf once more seeks shelter beneath the snow

 

In your face I read the turmoil of worlds

You glance at the window hungry to pass

This gap of era’s linked only by Wikipedia’s portal

 

Your youth still finds favor in resumes

The choice of destiny stands impatiently bookmarked

You must let the call die quickly –

 

Or accept communion with the Greater Spirits
