The North Star

h a v e you ever seen something so beautiful -It made you cry Then - look up and out - into infinity - on a starry night and feel the presence of God -all around and know you will never be lonely again Stand there in the stillness and find total peace within yourself as all your torment and pain and fear d i s s o l v e Lost in the wonder - of it all

Elaine, it's an honor to stop by any time I see your name on my inbox. I haven't had much time to read new poems, due to the high volume of replies to my comments. However, this summer, I will turn off the notification to my e-mail. That way I can concentrate on all my favorite poets.. hugs... LINDA

The Will is seemingly one of the more popular piece recently, thank you for appreciating it too. It is five time multiplied because of the effort to let go the only the gift I have to give. Yet I follow your star, and when I am the manger I shall be silent, for I will have given my all: torment and pain and fear dissolve Lost in the wonder - of it all
