Welcome dear moon to my night,
the last of a life I find
in the shadows of one uncertain
loss after another, complete me.
Welcome your light to my mind,
what forgives me is nothing in time
not the stars nor the wind
nor the falling rain, undo me.
Welcome your calming rise,
to the edge I find my sight
on the way to become one breath
that fails me now, 'tis death.

(hey you)
Not even the wind ???
Could you write anymore beautifully???
been too long since my eyes read you dear poet of the wind...
stunning write MG.

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods.
There is a rapture on the lonely shore.
I love not man the less ... but Nature more.

this struck a deep chord with me....
and i found the writing to be what
poetry is all about.
