gustave caillebotte boats moored on the seine
the wind
of existence
continues
without end
passing through all points
of the experiential compass
and finding no end
so resting
moored
and
contemplating the flow
of life's river
is something
of a necessary luxury
an act of kindness
really
simply so
What would we do if there were no wind, or at least a breeze, Steven? I can't imagine.

ReplyDeleteHi Steven,
ReplyDeleteI've been enjoying your poems and your choice of images. They give me a sense of peace, and make me think. I love this one. To me, it celebrates the gift we give ourselves when we take the time to observe and absorb. As writers, poets, musicians, or artists, we return the gift we've given ourselves, by giving it to others.
hello annie, that's a really intriguing insight and i'm very grateful for it. it feels like what i am compelled to do through this blog! have a peaceful day. steven
