The Poet Where ever I am It is in the forest, a light rain falling. The sadness of a poet in my back pack. A wide brimmed hat keeping saltwater on my face. Each step is a miracle for me And I appreciate it as if I just learned to walk. I sweep my hands over the cool damp leaves And it might as well be a lover. I couldn’t be touched more. There is absolutely no concern For where this path is leading. I am busy being here. I know I’m the only one here. Knowledge is power, and I feel it all through me. Memories comfort me because they are finished creations. Where I am, nobody can force me to make more. It is finished. John Bidwell

I find this very compelling, John; and in many ways, I can completely relate to the sentiments expressed. It reminds me of something my father told me when I was a child: "Stay in contact with nature and you shall stay in contact with God." Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and peace to you,

Regis
