     ‘Deep-Time’  Dream

A clear moon arcs
its traceless path,
in its own good time,
over these sweet twilight
   mountain forests
of shadow-dancing spirits,
to an ancient Celtic tune
playing the mind and heart,
though attenuated now
  and vanishing
like smoke and echoes of
so much more … long-lost …
that the ancestors knew.
These rocks and ‘endless’
hills are but a sacred shrine
in a ‘Deep-Time’ dream
to all who ever walked here
with infinitely humble curiosity
and boundless, unfettered
  imagination.

As I am reading this poem I am listening to "Celtic Pride II" both together make me want to go to a mountain meadow and dance in the moonlight...such stunning words bring the magic of your poem to life...I love it...and I humbly thank you for the vision that exists in 'Deep-Time'...**BIG HUGS**

*may our dreams ever be magical*

Haha! I'm not listening to anything I feel like dancing to, but I did manage to dance through your well-written poem and I loved it very much. You just keep putting these beauties out.

I hear that "ancient Celtic tune" when I read this and it is beautiful.
