"and to conquer fear is the purpose of life" is a heavy line, Peter. I have conquered all fears through intense therapy years ago, but I have one remaining fear that I try endlessly to conquer, and that is the fear of rejection. I HATE dismissal. It has made me feel so invalidated at times in my life and it hangs on like a thorn. Although I don't ever feel invalidated now, I do have times when I feel I have been dismissed. Like you, I go to a very meditative environment, say my Goddess prayer, and come back from Sage's Meadow refreshed, "as my spirit soared within my psyche."

I am the same. Nature provides me with entertainment. The otters are the happiest I know. We had a pair off Wilmington Island when my children were young. They'd come take a dip in the neighbors pool...play with the dog in the creek and bump you out of the chaise for attention. They are monogamous creatures too. To watch them made my heart full and nothing about us civilized people could touch it

Your poem took me back to Wilmington Island and Sammie and Sarah...the names we gave our little sleek friends.
Well done.

I won't let the sun go down on me either, now the mother, that's a different story. LOL Sitting alone and with the elements give you a backdrop of peace and serenity one does manage to eek out some wonderful words of wisdom and pure, unadultrated peace, away from the rat race and the asrtificial clamour, at least the gulls clamor in its honest search for life sustaining food.

Sounds like a wonderful spot to reflect on life's mysteries, nature's wonders, and that mystifying veil which 'stops us knowing what's on the other side of this madness.'

And, of course, I love the picture, and that intriguing signpost.

Wonderful write, Peter. Marvelous imagery. How I love the sea and otters. Did you ever see the film, "Ring of Bright Water"?...That veil you speak of-yes I do believe you're right...This poem has the feel of a journal, expressing the internal and external worlds. Thank you for the peek into both...
