Gone Without a Trace Here amid the rock and pine serenity and streaming twilight of this soft Summer night, with a grand, wise, and powerful full moon rising, wisps of swirling mist mingle with memories and dreams of all that ‘should have been,’ but the ‘walking dead’ still living have no right to disturb the ancient spirits of these ‘endless’ hills with petty worries, plans and schemes. Be instead as a night bird against the silvered clouds, with a full-clear mind, spirit and the wanderer’s heart, when gone, gone without a trace. --- b. e. adams (7/11/2014) |

I love what you said about the bird with a clear mind and spirit... That is always how I read you and what i take from your poetry. |

Your poetry is artwork. I see the images that you paint and feel the peace that you bring with each image you share. A |
