June 1, 1870 From the Soddy Journal Spring lies on the cusp of summer, morn breaks well though tepid air surrounds and Breeze, Breeze plays gaily, calling, “come dance with me,” and shall tease the children. He stands there, by lone cottonwood tree where redwings sing to him, as if counting seed on each head of grass or is his head bowed low in prayer… we’ve so much to be thankful for… we’ve so much to do… but Breeze takes away my breath the horizon is pearl with light, befitting a June dawn… sweet comes hint of rose, apt greeter of the day… in my coming to terms, I know, all that can break me remains in my ignorance, if I may but have one blissful morning under his hand. |

Ah the beautiful poetic musings of a love dreamer This is pure poetic beauty......... "but Breeze takes away my breath the horizon is pearl with light, befitting a June dawn… sweet comes hint of rose, apt greeter of the day…" written like the seasoned poet you truly are! I don't know exactly what you do all day but it must be ideal! Well I have to go before the horizon gets ebony without light! Ta ta for now! |

These historical poems of yours are truly amazing. Love the final lines to this. Well done! I may not reply often here on Passions anymore, but that doesn't mean I don't read |

I feel as though I were standing there next to that Cottonwood....head bowed, hair blowing around a hat, stained with sweat of the fields... So many things to do...so few to do it... God give me the strength... Beautiful words KJ....you have a way of reaching into me with your words that so easily paint the picture... |
