I am no authority
on anything but my
loneliness—God forbid
that I should feign
a higher degree
of scholarship.

I have seen beauty,
and that vision
sustains me
in my darkest hours.

Art, you do not have to "feign (having)
a higher degree
of scholarship." ~ You own it!

I enjoy your scholarly, philosophical, contemplative writings! ~ and I have seen "beauty" in your visions!!!

God bless you, dear Poet Man.

Love and a warm hug,
Linda

Art, I can relate

I do hope my vision never fades

Yo Art,

Nice work.  

A good vision of beauty can indeed do the trick.  They are memorable.

The high degree of your "scholarship" is obvious, Art and your vision of beauty sustains us all.

You know how to look within and the answers you find are simply awesome!
