       endless beginnings

As evening twilight deepens
into a starlit-splendor tapestry
of dancing constellations
over these ancient hills
and this soft and motionless
winter forest of new-fallen snow,
a few north wind clouds
seem to carry the moon away
in a time abeyant moment
   of enlightenment.
Here one may learn to open
the spirit-heart and mind,
to sow only love far and wide
in a life of endless beginnings
and multitudinous dreams.

I can see the snow and the woods, and feel the peace in this.  Very lovely

"Endless beginnings" - yes, life seems to be like that even in the time that we know about.  Perhaps the dreams are the start of the beginnings in a time that we don't know about.

I believe there are no endings just "endless beginnings" I just wish I could express those thoughts as well as you do, Bruce.

A perfect depiction of WB Yeats' "and peace comes dropping slow!"  Love it!

I felt silence as I read this.  It reminds me of Kacy too.

Thank you, Bruce.
