Sky chord of breathing--
It is oldand Always Open. Open-ing
The within the without--flows between any boundaries made...
Earth time. A heat. A sustenance. Family
Hop on. The blur; It moves. Quickly
but remains, essentially
feathered, season by season ...stillness; flight.
It grazes together on blooms of light;
Etched to remember
rock long stacked by hands.
tangled, rooted.
Hand shaped world-- our marks fade
simply, quietly; an elegance
emerges; leaning each to each, as we.
One Angel frowns since June 17, 1783.
Primitive the mouth the eyes; all is Spiral
and Eternal--these hours; these mirages of color the eye drinks
here where Silence leans on itself, here the majesty--within us
sight, smell, touch stitched to all the emotions of a life.
.
I wish Peace to all who enter here --
and these last lines from Pablo Neruda's poem
"The Gift"
I want all the hands of mankind
to knead mountains
of bread, gather
all fish in the sea,
all the fruit
of the olive,
all the love still unawakened,
and leave
gifts
in the hands of the day.
.
are they open. your hands
willing to give--this awakening love of which we make and are made.
.
I say yes

Dear lover of words, what a beautiful post. I do not know how I missed this and am sorry I have been gone for so long. I thought YOU we on a trip, a vacation, a journey but here you have been.
Light circles and window frames. Feathered stillness.
Stones in their proudness.
Ahhhhh... such beauty.

Just stopping in to say hello. I very much enjoyed seeing this old cemetary. Merry Christmas!
You have such lovely images and words here... Pablo Neruda is one of my favorite poets... happy holidays and happy new year!
just wanted to say: May this New Year be one of realized dreams… even those we did not realize we were dreaming!
Back again to visit you and say hello.
I put Pablo's poem into my journal this time. My favourite photo in this post is the third one from the bottom.
Thanks for being here.
AFor your encouragement of our hands, kneading, gathering, leaving gifts - thank you for your guidance and support. xx
"where silence leans on itself"
I had to read your words again.
A silence until spring emerges.
That is what I feel here.
