So It Goes

Wind howls. Gulls cry. Tides turn. Seas sigh. The moon pulls. Light tricks. You go. The clock ticks.

I felt you were describing what i can here right now, with my bedroom window open the wind howling and the sea high. x

...death and taxes! So much beauty is beyond our control... thank goodness! Nature's grandeur keeps US under control I think... Best wishes, Keith

Love this Maggie. Each little verse holds vivid, almost mystical imagery and so much more. A perfect example of how less is more. Also, a quick thank you for your comment on Michael's poem for me. That was lovely and so appreciated. Meanwhile, you are a huge talent, and I look forward to reading more. Warmest wishes, Shar
