Closing my eyes I stood in the center of the gathering mist, where time knows no boundaries only to awaken in another place of exist where in awe, I marveled at the clear running streams with purple mountains above and fields of green filled with the most peaceful sounds of harmony. Such signs of life completely surround this place held in time where beauty abounds and the crackle of fire, slow burning of wood scents the evening air and night falls, as it should with only the stars to light up the skies Luna smiles while keeping a watchful eye.... Brothers speak without saying a word breaking the silence their voices are heard, I hear them howling across the plains the images turn to shadows beginning to wane. My soul, determined, to resist fights returning to the mist to whence that era has long since gone We stand in judgment of our wrongs Now these visions of time filled with life scenes can only be reached within our spirit dreams. seek the flame within yourself and let your soul be cleansed by the fire of love.

We stand in judgment of our wrongs as it should be...right? all the wrongs that we have ever implimented on the lives of others, will clearly be seen, and we will indeed be humbled. This was magnificant!!!! |

Donna, I love that dreamy photo of you! May I say that your spirit poem is one that I could read over and over again. ~ That is why I am saving it!  Every word evoked an emotional and dreamy response in me. I not only read your poem ~ I experienced it.  Love & Spirit Light, Linda |

Luna smiles while keeping a watchful eye.... Brothers speak without saying a word breaking the silence their voices are heard, I hear them howling across the plains the images turn to shadows ~*~ Loving this passage... very much so. . |

Thank you so much for the peace your spirit dreams brought me. I want to say that this is the best of all your poems that I have read, but I seem to think that of each one - please don't stay away so long. We all need your exquisite writing. - Owl |

wonderful imagery, surreal surroundings and then judgement... a sharp contrast but one that takes the poem from dreamlike to reality. Good job. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Your last two seem to me that you have begun to find roots, sounding Native American to me. This is absolutely stunning. |

Donna "Now these visions of time filled with life scenes can only be reached within our spirit dreams." These places, this place that you speak of still exists....I visited for a few moments yesterday..and it was not in a dream. The place was a small lake, I went to fish, even knowing the weather was going to change... It was calm, 50 degrees, warm for January, but the ice was safe...I heard a roaring in the woods across the road, it was the cold front approaching...It was awesome... "Brothers speak without saying a word breaking the silence their voices are heard, I hear them howling across the plains" It was the "brothers" speaking to me..."breaking the silence" telling me to leave..they did not howl across earth plains, but across the water plains of lake Ontario... And I obeyed... by the time I reached my truck the temp had dropped 20 degrees...and the high winds brought with them, snow.I listened to the voices in the wind, they have never steered me wrong..they are the voices of my "brothers" Sorry for all the hot air, I talk too much when I become the poem I am reading... ________ ___ice ><> |
