Forever To Shine

The joy of a simple walk
The company of a treasured dog
With peace as my guide
I step deeper inside 

Each stride brings me closer
To myself in this moment
As the past and future 
Drift slowly away

All bliss now disconnected
From place or event
Its joy sustaining 
And unendingly mine

The time of the season
All seasons do abound
New light from within 
  —here forever to shine

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2015)

I love this, I felt this - the content has great flow and feeling to seal the delivery of a feel I know, but is so vague that I cannot name it. I enjoyed the read that tapped something inside me, again - something I cannot name. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
