Life, a circle
where three veins meet
in Peace, a dream
a waking,
walk of life
to be called
whate’er it seems

Can life be thought
it intertwines
blood of brothers
yours and mine
somewhere fleeting
one heart’s beating:
“Love is all
we hope to find”


then love will hurt
and peace it fails
one thing to you
Faith prevails

love, faith,
peace, or other
we want God
to bless?
all I can say
from my heart
brother
is
Yes…

Walt,
you are reaching a pinnacle of depth in thoughts... and the profoundity in your most recent poems (there are many of them) is so far reaching... and thought-provoking that I am just trying to figure out what will be the next one and when will it be....

regards,
sudhir

Oh, my friend .....
this is a beautiful piece.

'Can life be thought
it intertwines
blood of brothers
yours and mine
somewhere fleeting
one heart’s beating:
“Love is all
we hope to find”
'

Such truths are evident to those
who search with open hearts.

'love, faith,
peace, or other
we want God
to bless?
all I can say
from my heart
brother
is
Yes…'


A magnitude of heart on display.

silky surface of the Severn,
and remembered that it
was a famously difficult
river with fierce tides..."
