        Wayward Traveler

Abandon the time-haunted
world of prosaic sorrows.
Walk where deep velvet clouds
nestle verdant mountaintops.
Allow all profusion of cares
to disperse with echoes and dust
in the passing whispers of a
   vagabond wind.
Here ... heart, mind, and spirit
turn clear as this forest spring;
and pristine serenity reigns
asking nothing but forgiveness
of life … (and enlightenment)
from the wayward traveler.

You are a mindful traveler and a beautiful poet, dear Bruce.

Those are the most precious moments, when we know the value of forgiveness, as we expand in awareness.

Love,

MANY thanks to all who have found some small merit in my 'scribblings'  ...

along the way, I hope that I have been at least one 'small voice' for Gaia;
embracing/celebrating diversity; and the 'Universalist' paradigm (both scientific
and philosophic)
