        Inestimable Beauty
          and Mystic Love

Just before sunrise
in the last sweet stillness
  of the night,
as a pale, pensive moon
challenges the dawn
mid a star-teased ‘timescape’,
(splashed across the gentle canvas
  of velvet midnight-blue)
a fine stellar chorus….
whispering cosmic incantations,
(when ‘life’ seems most sad and
   pointless)
dissolves the limited horizons
   that bound us all,
and, for one grand-delicious
   moment,
we can truly taste the universe…
of inestimable beauty
  and mystic love!

Another superb poetic offering. Bruce, you are the ultimate romantic image poet, constantly penning tasty lines that roll off the tongue!

See, I always miss that moment being deep in sleep. Though now you inspire motivation to take a peek someday. Which I'm sure is why I was disqualified for your line of work. So instead, I'm a nocturnal nature novist. Nice write.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Your poems are truly beautiful and it's that mystical touch I love the most.

To see a world in a grain of sand
And heaven in a wildflower,
Hold infinity. in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
