Let time flow through each moment of experience; learning to swim with every tide, every awareness; observing, understanding each moment. For as a picture once taken it stands on its own merits unchanged in its light and shadows: every experience stored in the fabric of the greater soul. It is unwise to long for a pliable future unvisualized, unshapen, unknown; to ponder too deeply a past whose fire has died; whose memory no longer strikes the tender, the bitter chord of life. Every moment must live unhindered encouraging and enhancing the next until all desires blended with faith, birth harmonious dreams, raise powerful creations. |

This is a magnificent ‘write’! [one of the best things I’ve ever read] I am particularly fond of: “Let time flow through each moment of experience; learning to swim with every tide, every awareness; observing, understanding each moment. For as a picture once taken it stands on its own merits unchanged in its light and shadows: every experience stored in the fabric of the greater soul” serious, long-sustained applause [a poetic ‘standing ovation’!] someday, maybe I’ll finally pen something this fine! |

I'm in line behind Bruce on this one. You've posted many many fine writes, and I am truly a fan of yours. But this? You've outdone yourself, my friend. WW, I'll keep this one safe in my personal favorites library. |

Fine writing...reminds me of something my friend said to me today..."Don't worry, be happy." A reggae song sung by a friend a long time ago...James |

Another great poem Windwalker. I didn't realize there were so many I hadn't read. I think it pays to look into the archives sometimes. You never know what you might find. Ida |
