Time Taken

Majestic are the silhouetted trees Against an evening sky of midnight blue Invigorated by the gentle breeze I watch the moon engaged in peek-a-boo. And with the poet choose to 'stand and stare';* A fleeting moment free from worldly care. 04.01.23 * W.H.Davies' poem 'leisure' : 'What is this life if full of care We have no time to stand and stare'

Thanks for sharing this. Meanwhile, by God's grace, I greet you with the peace and joy from the Lord toward a prosperous New Year 2023 along this present: "the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 6:23 of the King James Bible). God bless you.
