Inscription upon the Horizon
I heard the sound of the sea

It encompassed my soul
like a heavenly embrace.
It set me free like a lucid breeze.
It was like a speech of a father:

David J Walker
And when you find your path
To heaven
Looking back is not an option
Navigation flowing through

The Inscription
Finally,
what I wished for, came to pass.
After many decades of a turbulent life, I managed to reach
the gates of old age!
Now,
before them I stand,
pondering at the inscription written above the entrance:
"Enter at your own risk!"

So instinctly

Silver string tugs
By the moons inscription
Writing:
“Open to heart’s desire
Left upon the kind
Leaving one to perspire
Towards the unyielding mind”
The moon sends its grace
To the passerby
Filling all with hope
Of a silver thread design

INSCRIPTION!
Gathering my thoughts, I begin to write.
Insofar, I had not wrote in nine years then the sun begins to shine in.
What is it to be without voice?
I know I am of heart and soul.
Therefore, my journey will unfold via poetry.
I will tell about my anticyclones.
I will share my emotions even during the most critical times.
For
