a 'Universalist' !

0 posted 2009-01-27 02:18 PM


Shortly after joining 'P.I.P.', I posted this:

              Willow

     She has been bent....
     (but never broken)
     by all four winds.....
     to live a ‘winged’ life!
     in the light of the forest
     speaking her truth clearly....
     born of spirit-memories
     and a fine, proud heart
     which points the path
     so few may follow
     to the morning star
     and Nature’s truest call!....
     One poet stands
     both proud and humble...
     to have heard her ‘voice’!

           --- b. e. adams      

Most everyone immediately assumed it was about Marge.  
It does seem to 'fit' her rather well, I believe?! [and, it seems
somehow appropriate to re-post it in the 'here and now'] ...
She is most assuredly singularly responsible for me having
come to this website; plus, she had a definitive influence on
my 'voice' and style of Universalist 'nature-oriented' poetry
[particularly via her early Native (true) American 'pennings'].  
Another 'light' has left this ever-darkling world.

Yes, I believe this lovely poem is very befitting of Willow White Feather ~ our beloved Marge.

Love & Willow Light,

Yes indeed, it does "Fit" her well. She was a very kind and giving person, who touched my heart forever.
