.


I have lived
All these years
For your gaze

Not the sun’s light
Rising in the East
An autumn moon
Over a calm lake
Has ever had the influence
Of your eyes

I wake in the morning
Grateful for another day
Go to bed at night
Content in what I had

You are the reason
There’s beauty and poetry
In my world . . .

It’s just something again
I thought you should know

What a beautiful, warm poem! Dear John.  
One person's contentment will make other people's life more hopeful.
grateful for life going so far when  young life floating silently  around...is the strength to go further.

beautiful and with power!

beautifully articulated with a far away richness that most never acquire, let alone, understand....

I wish I had found the pot of gold that you found at the bottom of your rainbow...maybe I still will.....

Sir Balladeer
the painting  is from your website. Whose painting is it? or if there is a story about it? or I'll make a joke.
