                 insufficient words

tonight … there is …

a new star dancing through the ‘Milky Way’
a fresh and gentle Spring-whisper in the
    winter wind
a finer harmony in the night bird’s song
a lovely cadence in the timeless march
    of rolling clouds
a pristine elegance in the moon-tipped
    shadows
a firmer passion in Nature’s  plea
a new forbearance in the human heart

… as Kathleen’s spirit passes by.

                  --- b. e. adams (from: 1/2010)

just remembering all the exceptional writers who now 'dance'
the fine blue sands of "P.I.P.-land" by the cyber-sea in spirit!  

     (for Ms. 'Kacy' Stafford and the rest)

Floods of tears, Bruce.  I often think of Kacy and miss terribly - her, her poetry, her emails and her beautiful soul.  I feel her in the ether around me in natural surroundings, and warring on the polluted surroundings.  The world was richly blessed by her 64 years in it, and continues to be blessed in our memories and in her poetry.

Bruce...She shines in so many ways still.  I think I saw her in the full moon just now.

many thanks Diana, Martie, Jo !!

Kathleen was indeed one of the v. finest
human beings I've ever known ... and
"P.I.P." most certainly has had a grand-fine
queue of superb writers.

Yes, sometimes words seem insufficient to express our feelings, but you found some wonderful words within your heart, dear Bruce, to remember our dear Kacy and other dear Pip friends who moved on.

They still inspire us and always will.

Love,
Margherita

I think of Kacy often. She was one of my favorite poets and a very special person. Thank you for this beautiful tribute, Bruce.
