against the night life is a nebulous mist in the fleeting twilight, passing forever into unimaginable time. love is a lightning flash in the thunderous wind, etched for a moment against the cavernous night. --- b. e. adams (6/15/2009) |

Beautiful in its melancholy, dear Bruce. I do think that love is more than a "lightning flash", but it's our awareness of it that matches this definition. Love, Margherita |

I always liked the word nebulous. Love and lightning..both can terrify as well as excite. |

Love is like a shooting star across the night sky, like a flash, a very bright flash that lights up your heart, your path, it is a jolt, that breaks the silence, awakens, stirs, the senses, but yet very fragile, one of the best treasures in life, value it when you have it, for in a flash, it could be gone~ ~ARH  |

Bruce, You live nature and frame it around the thoughts in your poetry. Does that sound trite? It's as if you inhale the natural beauty around you. A |

But, oh, what a glorious flash of lightening love can be ~ Even if only "etched for a moment".  I love Nature and I love Love! ~ and I love how you have 'naturally' combined the two in this fine write!  Linda |

yes ... (sadly) it is ! [I used to believe that 'poetry' was one of the finest, shining 'weapons' in that 'battle'!] |
