The Tiniest Thought or Dream

A moon-lantern hangs
over these ‘endless’ hills
piercing wind-swept clouds
as the trees still dance to
music of the passing storm
in the vanishing wake of
  thunder-cadence
that shook the very waters
  and stones.
Open your eyes and heart
  to taste every moment of
  the precious ‘now’
when even the tiniest thought
  or dream
may stir the boundless sea.

Loved this . . .
quote:

The words leading up to the above were, as normal for you, gave the reader something to feel good about, the "moon-lantern" occasioned one for me.

Again, what a surreal portrait you paint here.  It's like for a moment we're able to see as perhaps the gods see. All-encompassing. Enjoyed!

Powerful writing from powerful elements, shot through with the gold truth of living for 'now', thank you for the write so fresh...
