Dear Peter,



This is a revelation of the soul!



"when the heart connects with the universe"



This is where we shall meet one day, my friend.



Love & Light,

Joseph

Absolutely beautiful, there are places I go where I feel so close to the earth and all her beauty, this reminds me of that feeling. Outstanding poetry!

nicely done

A beautiful reminder of the need to be still, to listen to nature's songs, to allow serenity in...

Love this poem, Peter.

To Love ourselves totally is to first Love the Creator and recognize Him as such and follow after the design we were created to be...an image, a reflection of the Almighty in the earth. I love the descriptions here... you paint a magnificent scene of tranquility where you blend into the environment and become one with the Earth Mother. Ah, nothing is more vocal than nature itself to the testament of a Loving Creator. :) I felt myself sitting right there with you.

Goethe's words and your own are very contrapuntal, I feel, Peter. Nature is both beneficient and a righteous judge who pays back like for like. So we need to beware her wrath as well as revel in her grace and bounty. A wonderful pastoral and inspirational, uplifting write. TY Kate xx

thanks for taking me camping with you ( in this poem ). Nice write Peter. Mary

Peter, I am so quickly enveloped in the scene you set and anxiously read in anticipation of the questions I know will come, almost as if I know what they will be. I am there and I can almost touch the ground as if it were moss under fingertips...cool and soft and rich in color...as gently as you imagine all the spaces and creatures of God's creation. Perhaps this just hit close to home recognizing personal within accompanied by the need to reach to nature for it's blanket of safety... alone in our own space and thoughts, with whimsical weasels vacating walls, et in the overwhelming realm of the Universe as we look for answers to tough questions.
I must confess, this brought on the waterworks. A classic, Peter...

I'm at my best, when I am close to nature

And that's when some of your best poetry emerges, too, Peter!

Beautiful done, this brings us almost as close as if we went outside ourselves!

You know I agree, for we are all tuned into the same Creator who made sure we all have His breath of life,so it only makes sense that we are inspired by nature. I often think Nature is also inspired by us!;-)Splendid poem Peter!

Love and harmony,
Eileen

Yes! And I tried in my stumbling way to say the same thing in my latest poem(three birds). But you've succeeded brilliantly. Beauty, Peter...

Peter . . .
I agree with you, there is much revelation that can be had out in nature. My wife and I find, often, our greatest inspiration while we adventure and hike through God's profound and lovely creation.

This was excellent, especially in the feelings that accompanied it.

Richard

fantastic write and wonderful inspiration

Nice transition from your love of nature to your love of God.

Lost for words.....just brillo

Peter, this was a MASTERPIECE IN EVERY SENSE.. Thank you so deeply for this treasured write. Your descriptions of your imagery never fails to totally amaze me. They are breath taking...Spirit and love radiate within your being, your soul...

Peace & Love,
Dove

Peter this is extravagant for some and so easy to be in this place for others. We are closest to our Creator and ourselves when we seek solace in the vastness of silence accompanied with nature. There is nothing dearer than an evening rich in the senses and the light from within that is nourished best by moments like this. This is beautiful and I like this peace as my own.
