           Love

Above the fog,
the sky is deep and
clouds are few.
This December night
looks and smiles
upon a nether-world
painted in frost
like condensed
  moonlight;
the far greater
joy and beauty
though lies forever
in any mind and
humble heart upon
simply remembering,
if in this life of
ever-fleeting dreams,
one has known Love.

Yes, and its a bit sad that you speak of it in the past tense.

If one has love in their heart, naturally and ever flowing, it is not lost when someone leaves us. Though we may speak of them as 'our lost love', the perpetual and ever-flowing love inside us is always in the 'now'.

For as warm and gentle as love is often portrayed, it is stronger than any element known to Man.


A deep reverence for Nature and love for people is always evident in your poetry SHDP.

thank you for the lovely comments !

I hope my lil' "poetic scribbles" do sometimes give fine
'voice' to Gaia and also to the celebration of human diversity ...

as I had ended one of my previous 'writes':

" Listen, listen ... to the
voice of Nature and of
     Love
and you will have heard
     everything."
