![]() I Stand in Wonder by Linda L. Dowd In these waning days of summertide, ~ as sun descends through humid haze, I breathe the splendour of prismatic colours into the very core of my being. At the edge of the world, I stand in wonder with out-stretched arms reaching into sorbet skies. There is no beginning, nor is there an end to all that surrounds me. ~ For I am a vibrant particle of the All. . |

Many times I stand and wonder about the world's beauty - but never before I ever stop to think of myself as a particle of it all. Thanks, Earth Angel. You've opened my eyes to some insights here. Booky1940. |

This is a beautiful poem, Linda. I think I might be more of a free radical than a vibrant particle though. :p And all the roads that I've been strolling down... now I've found they all seem to be marooned. So profoundly doomed. |
