       Twilight-Forest Meadow

Wildflowers grow dim
in the vanishing twilight,
while tree-shadows dance
with the gathering moonlight.
The Summer wind mingles
  the scents
of jasmine and honeysuckle
from the world of men
around ten thousand corners
of these mountain forests,
as cicada sing their cryptic song
  to the fireflies
beneath a cosmic swirl
of endless galaxies.
Come ... and learn
to be quiet and gentle.
Drink deep of calm humility,
for every moment here
is far, far more than
you or I shall ever truly
‘know’ … or be.

Instructive descriptive poetry at its best, Bruce.

A peacefully beautiful vision that draws the spirit to a place where inner quiet fills the soul...a world created by those who seek such beauty...It may start in the mind but I believe that we each have the ability to bring it to life...I completely enjoyed my visit here...**BIG HUGS**

*may our dreams ever be magical*
