Contemplation reigns
In winter of these thoughts like flurries in the night sky
So subtle moon in shades that gallop all the spectrum of the minds eye

What I can’t idealize
To be the basis for my searching all along the ridges white
And surely to be drifts of powdered myths to sleep again the endless night

Sleep forever claims
Shimmering of Viking ships on torrid seas o’er waves of mystic sighs
In salted sweet hallucinations starched and pressed in pages to give rise

Simple offers scrutinize
In winter storms that dust the decks of charming trips in hallowed light
So soft upon the eye and in the heart as beckons in the making right

Contemplation seeks
To be the only option open, the only path in clear, the only mirror wise
And what to come, the last be done where winters here in grand surprise

(smiles) Yes, contemplation is the method in which we must practice, but yet we must not contemplate of the winter, but rather the incandescense beyond the winter, that of spring only making its gentle trip this way! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is precious, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kathleen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

TD,  I think we all wish we could write like
this,  I know I do...

A little mind swirling might be this
as one sails the ocean blue in bliss
