       Truth and
   Evergreen Love

Rather than fleeting
fame and glory,
nor 'success' defined
by angry men,
give me Nature’s
simple truth and
evergreen love
as certain as the
perennial promise
  of Spring
and the butterflies
return to dance with
absolute abandon
in the Summer sun,
beneath an ever-
rolling pageant of
soft-silken clouds;
no matter how
deep, cold, bleak
and desperate
the Winter of
one's despair …
the wilderness
never tires of
our company.

            --- b. e. adams (6/30/13)

I do believe we find comfort in nature, Bruce, and a healing of the spirit. Well said.

Delicious, Bruce.  I love and feel every nuance of it.
