Drawn in the garden of light
warm in the shade
giving way to contrasts
cascading in a haze
exquisite in the mirror of dreams.

Designs on the moonlight
beveled around the edges
reflect in glassy eyes
scattered pieces of light
timeless in the turning.

Around a sundial moving
deciphered through the eaves
rising from a fountain
that dances in the daylight
gleaming in the mist.

Streams float and come together
edging along the hedge
a kaleidoscope of color
slow hands in the sunlight
splashing flecks of golden glints.

Instrumental in the movement
lifting away the fog
shaded blue beyond the clearing
stepping from the shadows
through the garden into light.

Lori,
And...waalaa there you are a dream come true! I like that.

It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo!

the rain
from pouring down
can't stop the
world from turning 'round
can't stop me from
loving you
no matter
what you do"

(smiles) Awwwwww, I love this, sweet friend, I could envision that kaleidoscope stream flowing like silk into the garden of light and bringing about the colors of Mother Nature to every budding leaf and flower! (kiss on cheek) This is breathtaking, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Larry~ No matter how dark the days are there is always a reason to move towards the light.  I'm getting there!      I can never thank you enough for your support.  I mean that sincererly!!!

Mr. Tabin~ An old muse is better than no muse at all!   Thanks for reading and btw, you look good in pink!!     I'm so glad you had a nice visit in Cape Cod and all the good times you shared with your poet friends.  

Amy~  Thank you sweet lady. I am grateful for the verses we share and that our paths cross now and then.  You are truly a delight.  

Noah~ Mother nature works in strange ways.  I believe she walks hand in hand with our fate and guides us to our destiny.  I thank you always for reading and shedding your light.

Maureen~  I believe when the day comes and we walk through that garden together where ever it may be, it will be a magical time to savor and walk slowly through.   Hugs gf~

BC~  Oh BC you're much too kind,  no sooner do I think I've found my way only to lose myself again.  The light the light, it's just gotta be there!!     Thanks...
