The North Star

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

Lost in the wonder - of it all

Poet Destroyer A April 6, 2015 at 7:02 PM 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

L'Nass Shango March 20, 2009 at 5:11 AM 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
