He Spoke “of meadows sprinkled in fragrant wildflowers with forests filtering crimson sunsets” and so transformed was I to a glen in green, yellow and young blue spark'l'ings early spring delights, scents of grasses growing and those special well-sprung mists where only the purest breezes blow I stayed in the glen to breathe in the warmth of this golden day smelling pungent ground moved by worms in my stay I delighted in the sun of this, your delay, felt the warmth saturate my shoulders warming my legs encased in black jeans pulling in the sun lifting my face to the sky freckles popping in the silence smelling feeling holding in nature surrounded in His love and knowing, realizing laughing, in gay delight the thought of being surrounded by poets… nature’s delight. Today, I shall stay in the warmth of the glen and love and know the gift of humans. ~*~ Slightly revised...and Reposted in honor of Auguste and William Yeats... because by their reading, they honored me.

Sweet Sun, sister of my heart, this is outstandingly good, and I truly and utterly adore it. I am supposed to be studying but I had to slip into PiPs for a sip of beauty. Have a wonderful day, and think of me sometimes As always Mushy X x x x x x x x Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

What a lovely tribute to them and how wonderful that we can share it too and breathe in this lovely poem! Just what I needed before I go to sleep - oops! I have just seen the time - I have to get up in a couple of hours - but PIP magic, as always, has had me enthralled for more time that I can afford - but so difficult to go out of PIP. Strange how the entrance door to PIP swings wide and welcoming, but the exit door always seemed jammed. - Owl |

What pulled me in: "nature’s delight." What I took away: "the gift of humans." A terrible, wonderful gift we've been given. |

Thank you for taking my senses through the meadow. I could feel the air and sense the smell of the ground. Nicely written, Karilea. When cleaning out my bookshelves today, guess what I came across? Yesterday's Love! I thought I had loaned it to someone a couple of years ago and they hadn't returned it... You know what I'll be re-reading this summer! hugs, Cathy |

"surrounded in His love and knowing, realizing laughing, in gay delight the thought of being surrounded by poets… nature’s delight. Today, I shall stay in the warmth of the glen and love and know the gift of humans." Karilea this is beautiful, and so are you! |
