The surface of the
Water dances ~
As the wind
Passes by ~
The sky is a
Brilliant blue ~
With tiny wisps
Of cloud ~
Palm trees rustle
In the slight
Cool breeze ~
A bright white
Contrail ~
More than the jet
That precedes it ~
Draws my eye
Upward ~
And in its wake
To my surprise ~
The merest hint
Of an infant
Crescent moon
Appears ~
How lovely ~
I sit in my chair
And gaze up to
The heavens ~
So still I feel, as
I contemplate
My part in this
Cosmic journey
Undertaken by
Us all ~
Filled with a peace
I have never
Felt before ~
At one with
The Universe ~
As I have never
Been before ~
But the moment
Passes and I am
Myself once more ~
Waiting for the
Next moment
Out of time ~


Melody,
I always find these intimate moments with the Universe so pleasing. I like the way you have described this event. Happy New Year!
Theresa, thanks. It was either a late Christmas or an early New Year’s gift from the Universe.
Melody,
Thankfully the Universe is always so gracious.
Gorgeous poetry..super-beautiful post…

Victoria, thank you for the lovely compliment. I’ll be sure to visit your blog.
I actually visited your blog yesterday but couldn’t find any way to comment or follow. I LOVE your work. It’s incredibly beautiful!
You really are a conduit Melody Haislip, this is the first piece of writing of yours that I fell in love with.
Thank you, Pete. The position of President of my fan club just happens to be open.
Unpaid volunteer position of course, right?
Pete, you see right through me, don’t you?
