              dreams and illusions

Here…where a gentle, vagabond stream
and astonishing moon rising…
silently trace their separate paths
through these ancient hills
beneath a scintillating, star-drenched sky,
on this calm and soft Spring-forest evening,
one must simply pause to celebrate our finest
    dreams
and yet to question some dark illusions...
of dominance, destiny, and endless progress.

Hi Bruce, I like this poem as a metaphor of the pause, this is touching and we should think of that frequently.

have a nice day

Hi Bruce....Thoughtful and complete.

still the birds, unbridled, sing."
