Beyond the reach of mortal man,
...beyond the realm of knowing,
Lays a land of ice and snow,
...of blizzards ever blowing.
Howling gales scale ice-capped peaks,
...relentless winds enswirling,
In a kingdom without rulers;
...in a castle without king,
No sun to warm, no moon to glow,
...no hours of the day,
Glaciers flowing, ever flowing,
...beneath skies, charcoal grey,
In a valley in ice mountains,
...a cave lays mid snow's blowing,
Lays eye of calm in blizzard's fury,
...lays center of all knowing.

Tim,
it seems there is a difficult path to the centre of all knowing, yet I would gladly brave the storm with your poetry to light the way.

Tim~

As cold and icy as it may be at times, the sun does shine.....the meaning behind this is underlined, and I read between the lines...just a little to grab the meaning in its powerful motion.....GREAT write...

Thoughts slide out
of hiding and cling
to anything I put
in front of them.
Words bead up
like dew and in
a moment,
will be accessible.

(big hugggsssssss) Soooooooo wonderfully said, sweet friend, true wisdom and compassion can be found by first piercing through the ice of the frozen realm and finding warmth and solace within! (sigh) BRAVO!!! We all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Tim, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
