It was there;
just waiting, hoping,
behind the day,
sighing, impatiently bored,
awaiting something new.
The trees stood
silently, sleeping softly,
in no hurry
to waken, they
had been here
before. But a
period of cold
discomfort whistled around,
keeping the contentment
of warmer days
and bright nights
in the doubtfull
distance of days
still to come.


Desire for nothing except desirelessness,hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes, want nothing and you will have everything.avatar Meher Baba.

silently, sleeping softly"

A good one to add to your prose thread, Philip.  Something perhaps, that Gunther reads to Magda.

In a quiet time, of course.

If you ever decide to write a book, poems such as this one, would make for wonderfully descriptive passages in it.

Dreams....visions...manifestations

sometimes I just have to believe!  

Phil, sometimes there are only feathers where angels fear to tread.  You write with one of their quills!
