My Earthly flame is dying:
I must go, start a new journey
but remember this my child:
"If ever you should slip
trying to climb over a cliff,
I will be wind lifting you up
to solid ground;
if ever your roots become exposed
from worries and sorrows,
I will be earth
to cover them;
if ever they become dry
from too many judgments,
I will be rain
to give them new life;
if ever you lose your way
through clouds of doubt
or shadows of despair,
I will be sun
to light and warm your way;
if ever you lose sight of your vision,
I will be eyes
to guide you over many roads:
I will always be with you
on this singular journey of the Spirit.”

....My goodness, WW, what a legacy! What a write!

This is an exceptional piece of spirit writing!

It appears that the acorn did not fall far from his mother oak!

Love & Spirit Light,

A splendid write!!
I so much enjoyed this for my own personal reasons.
And therefore...I'm keeping this one tucked in my library.
Heart hugs~Nancy

No spring, nor summer beauty
hath such grace...
As I have seen in one autumnal face.

For me there is nothing finer
than to read such a strong
poetic presence speaking
with the grand ‘Voice’ of
Nature; spirit-vision;
and a mother's purest love!

The last 10 lines of this poem,
In my opinion are particularly
wonderful.....
such a grand joy to read!.....
It sparkles for me like the
poetry of Robert Burns
and the prose of
Henry David Thoreau....

Clearly, this poet is the combine spirit, and so blessed are these readers to be touched.
