A Moment With Dad by Annabel Sheila Wednesday, July 25, 2012 Rated "G" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan More than ever before I feel my oneness with nature....just like my precious Dad...

Moonbeams danced across the rippled lake Shimmering neath a harvest moon In a sky so full of stars it was as though Every light in heaven had been left on! Fireflies flickered in the tall grass… A bullfrog serenaded the night… And the air was so fragrant and pure It was like breathing for the very first time! And as I sat beside the ebony lake I knew this was where I belonged… My soul had never felt so at home… Like my father…I was one with nature! My Mi’kmaq ancestry was speaking to me… And the message was loud and clear! I could hear the trees; touch the breeze… And my body belonged to the earth. Raw and real emotions shook me to my core. Overwhelming happiness like I’ve never known Reduced me to blissful tears… As from eternity I felt my father’s arms around me. © Annabel Sheila

I absolutely love this stunning poem. You took me there, the scene, the emotions. Impressive work.

To think that being outside a a natural place can give so much and ask so little. "Every light in heaven had been left on!" I really liked that -- "And my body belonged to the earth." .. a very direct way to speak of this connection. Knowing where one belongs is a sensation some people never have, but I'm happy that you did. ~~ Diana

Like on Golden Pond, we remember the times we had with her parents on the lake the with the most love because that is where we experienced nature to its fullest. Thanks for taking me back to those wonderful days. Ron

Being one with nature - be very thankful of your father's gift - so many have lost the ability to do so today - and so sadly why our natural world is in such sad shape today.

your fathers arms have always been around you and he is smiling at his little girl. budd

Ohhh! This is so touching, Anna. I wish I could conjure up those kind of feeling about either one of my parents. Been in ER most of the day that's why I'm so late getting here.

Some moments, far too seldom moments come to us that touch our souls and the moment inpacks our heart and mind with words that, most often we cannot express because we cannot understand the deep felt emotion... You, my dear lady, have found the words. Your friend; Mark
