     gossamer hearts

clear Winter evening…
      
fresh moon gliding
this lake out of time
(midnight lantern in
   a cosmic dream)
bare trees dancing
the river of wind
half-billion year secrets
in these ancient stones
transient travelers
on eternity’s seas...

what shall we presume
   to truly ‘know’ ?

Yo Secondhanddreampoet,

I remember midnight lanterns on Eagles Mere during the summer.

Nice work.

Bruce,

I don't know much about much - there is so much greater than the limited knowledge I have.  But, I do know beauty when I read it.

This longing for cognizance is everpresent in a sensitive heart and your poetic skills rendered it wonderfully, dear Bruce.

Love,
Margherita
