      the glorious 'now'

Beyond the uncertain twilight,
in this forest evening land
of shadow-dancing dreams,
moonbeams, and ancient
  inscrutable hills,
all bonds of fate and worry
dissolve with the mists of
deep-time's infinite serenity.
Here there is only a gentle breeze
that stirs the lovely, lingering mix
of quick-silver clouds and stars
  in the glorious ‘now!’

                --- b. e. adams (6/5/2011)

Beautiful poem, as usual, Bruce.  Even if hope is only a gentle breeze, the fact that it is in the 'now' is a positive hope.

And into this "glorious now" I plunge together with you, dear Bruce. Your sublime scenery is a perfect ouverture to a deep meditation.

Love,
Margherita
