   Winter Passages

By frozen moonlight,
the abandoned road
near an icy creek
fades into this forest-
winter world of stillness,
silent spirits, and lost
  memories…
only Nature’s course  
remains true and
  absolute.

     --- b. e. adams (1/23/2009)

Hello Bruce...I've felt this steadfastness in nature as well...you've colored it with a true penning.

Bruce, with poems like this, one doesn't need paintings on the walls of one's home. If I ever go blind (no such warnings of that yet, but Daisy, my darling happy little doggy, is blind, so I often discuss blindness with her), I would get somebody to read me your poetry (especially your latest ones) and I would feel more sighted than the sighted.

Brings back some lost memories for me too,
made even more beautiful by reading this.
