Yes!

Willing to listen

There are many ways

Through which Nature talks to us

Gives us messages...

Sometimes all that is needed

Is just a simple 'Yes'

Solitude

There is comfort in solitude.
The stillness
That allows the quiescent space within to be felt.
Focus without distraction.
Listening
To the wise
Quiescent Self
That knows the answers.

There is comfort in solitude.

I may not see...

I may not see my footsteps anymore
But I recognize the smell
    from way, way before...

The fiery sun, the gentle breeze
Put earth and water well at ease...

This balance
Moving and changing for eons of time
Bring ever more ancient
    memories to my mind...

North and South ~ East and West
Are guiding me on every quest

Familiar ~ Familiar ~
Always there; never far...

Harvest

There are no half packages

When all is said and done
The song is sung
And life moves on

The same yet different
Alas!
Never as it was!!

Time

The last Summer rays
the weather grows colder
Shedding light on times
and stones much older
Memories brought here to forth
each a knot in Times’ cord
Event and memory
to the present
A revery

Uniquely You

Emulating

Is becoming

Who you are not

~ Which may be a lot better place

than you are at, this moment ~ 

Ultimately

It is the uniqueness

That you are!

The Old Friend

The old friend

Welcomes me

As we meet again

Long ago

Perhaps yesterday

It sheltered me

As I made my way north

It shared its space

It gave me shade

And now it welcomes me

Again
