A certain wind that beckons from out of season's place... Paradise in blanket spread-- patterns of the leaves to trace. Endless sky of summoning, a hand of comfort over mine-- silent song among the trees, the ceasing of relentless time. All of this was given free-- simply, for I had the need. A miracle begun in me-- the change of water into wine. And oh if I could make you see, you'd know you are a gift divine. I'd do for you, what you did for me-- make nightmare of your memories, each tear, a star, forever shine... |

serenity..... "Each tear, a star, forever shine..." You know that this is a beautiful poem, don't you?? I love poetry that includes nature, and this does it so well. Very nice writing, my friend...... Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Serenity this poem does not shine nor dazzle it absolutely blinds the reader with its brilliance. "Beyond all this good is the terror,The grip of a mercenary hand,When savagery turns all good reason, There's no turning back, no last stand,"I.Curtis |
