On Nature and Imagination When you can… feel a whirlwind in the calmest air find infinite wisdom in a slowly drifting cloud sense your spirit’s oneness with the deep-rooted rocks and trees see all tomorrows’ promises in a crystal-clear, moonlit lake taste the ambrosia in an empty bowl smell the breath of winter pines and ocean mists in the desert rejoice in transience and change hear your every atom singing of eternity… only then shall you know the truest ‘way!’ ~ |

"only then shall you know the truest ‘way!" ... and then "life" turns one away - must be the best and most effective conspiracy of all. ![]() Always enjoy your poems. Thank you. |

You know, dear Bruce, I am doing this all the time, my favorite imagination ... Your minimalistic universal Poem makes me question the length of the poem I wrote last night ... but then it's done and I'll leave it the way it is (I will compensate with some senryu and haiku!). A wonderful offering! Love, Margherita ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I like this, is a good description, used with good vocabulary. I would just prefer to see some capital letters. :3 |
