I pause
high above the world of human strife
to look about the mountain I call life
and in the air where breath is rare and clear
I notice other seekers venture near
A wave, a smile, a moment’s eye
and then their journeys pass me by
but in the silence that ensues
I find my heart has been renewed.

Nice blog
Thank you, I also enjoy your blog journey.
What a lovely poem full of that gentle acceptance and tolerance which marks so many of you comments. Hope you are getting through the Covid situation without too much difficulty
Your kind words are much appreciated. Life in my corner of the world is relatively safe and comfortable compared to most it seems. My morning walks down to the water’s edge continue, enlivened by occasional birdsongs and greetings from other passersby. I feel fortunate that writing and blogging connects me with many other curious and caring souls throughout the world.
I wish you all the best!
