Stillness



The late moon rises full behind me
through ancient pines
while an expansion of quietness fills the air

The barred owl's distant call insists
and his intent is clear

The bay suddenly shrinks
to within my grasp

Now I am here and I am there as well

I wonder if he hears my breathing

Sometimes there is magic, and I wonder where.  Enjoyed this!

Fantastic. I am putting this in my library, for safe keeping.

Nice. I like that the bay shrinks to yr size (in a way).

She said burn ... together.
