  A Moment Such as This

Amid the gentle evening
   twilight
a playful Autumn breeze
and soft moonbeam chorus
sing some ancient, distant
   Celtic melody
of Life, and Love, and loss
to these ‘endless’ hills
and the vast-eternal sky
above this vanishing
  wilderness edge.
Here the wandering
spirit-heart becomes
one with the grand forest
moon and 'consciousness'
of all that has ever been
part of the ‘Deep-Time’ story.
What price could be placed
on a moment such as this?!

secondhanddreampoet - No price can be placed on such a vision which gives inspiration that just being alive to enjoy is one gifted moment among moments. I liked this indeed shdp. Namyh

Good writing!

That's probably what I feel being in a forest )
