        Nothing More

I walk out of the darkness
along this road of darkness
   into the darkness,
with only the light of
a fine crescent moon
on the far vanishing edge
of these ‘endless' hills,
still knowing but little
   with any certainty.
He that claims much,
much more is either a
magnificent fool or
   a great liar.
I 'know' who I love,
how much I love,
and the inestimable
value of kindness ...
nothing more.

Well said dreampoet.  Your poetry is all encompassing, the beauty, the simplicity, the stunning visuals, and most importantly, the purity and sense of self your message conveys.

Excellent poem.

Brava Sir!!!

Wonderfully written Bruce. For the good life, the 'whole' life, there is nothing more one need know. You possess an extraordinary spirit and relate it well for us all to ponder and enjoy.

More feelings and fewer words please

Lovely points of wisdom! With your words you are a true artist!

If I were more than I am, I'd see things differently instead of the same all the time.
