       This Very Moment

‘Endless’ mountaintops emerge
    and vanish
in the cool twilight evening mist.
The silvered river flows forever
through its ‘Deep-Time’ dream
beneath a Quasimodo moon.
Bittersweet are the forest
    scents and sounds
of late Summer passing
for all things great and small.
Fireflies dance the cicada song,
across the meadow just beyond
ancient oaks and pines that
    whisk the clouds and stars.
The great broad Earth keeps
   turning ... turning.
Our transcendental Tao is
   this very moment.

The beauty of nature, a lovely poem. I guess these are the things that keep us hanging on, Bruce.
