    Celebrate the 'Now'

A warm and gentle wind
crosses a thousand miles
wrapped in early Spring.
The gentle moonlight
brushes soft-silver sands
and dances with the shadows
along this lake of dreams
by the deep forest edge.
Past and future are unattainable.
Celebrate the ‘now,’ for only it
is clear and lucent as the
star-swept eternal sky.

Yes indeed, Bruce, you have the right idea. The "now" is the vibrant and right time to celebrate life and all it holds dear for us.

Very nice. Considering the theme of your poem, the date you wrote it (5/17/2015) is extremely interesting.
