          The Greatest Fear

Down the ever-rolling years
comes perhaps the greatest fear of all...
that even Love can no more linger
than the final fleeting sunbeams
   at this twilight window,
when unknown shadows claim the day.

Such pictures painted in so few words.
What a soulful, instilling piece this is Bruce.

So nice to see you back, dear Bruce, your melancholy is always so hauntingly well expressed.

I love how you mix pain and sorrow with connections of natures haunting and chilling beauty.

Greetings, Poet Bruce! Have I ever mentioned to you before that EVERY time I see your photo, I think of Harrison Ford in the movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark"? I do! Yes, indeedy!

May true love find you ~ and "linger".

So glad to see you back, Bruce and with this sensitive and thought provoking piece. Yes, I guess that is the greatest fear.
