Deep Down As I walked on thoroughfares of leaves Along uncharted paths where nature breathes Deep pine and autumn oak seemed wise and tall So many years they’ve had, to ring the essence of it all The sun shone brightly to give thanks I joined the sparkle of her ranks in chime Kneeling down to share these thanks of mine Remembering some hearts I carry near divine November found in hushed regard Made temperate in nature’s yard today In the company of spirits high, my mind at play Then pause, to tie my laces, drink the water, pray The real of core born longing for your smile Wishes to be sharing love in every mile high The center of a soul-to-soul connection filled my eye Welled the deepest recess of a heart felt sigh For you…I could not change reality ‘tis true But there deep down, to warm my life, you do Copyright Kkh 11/25/06 |

This poem almost needs to be read in a reverent whisper. I enjoyed the walk through your autumn of remembrance. Kethry a good commitee can decimate communication. |

Revealing the deep down… is revealing. A masterpiece. You have graced the reader with the tenderness of your heart, and the wonderful workings of your mind. JL Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: |
