DIMENSION OF PEACE



REVERIE FROM A
HOTEL ROOM BALCONY

And, one more time--
Tonight!
I see above:
Glowing, golden shadows
And glorious fullness--that
Magnificent magnitude of
Moon Over Miami
Tonight
From the highest perch
Gives one more chance
To witness,
Experience
Oh! what sights
What sounds
And memories.
Human delights
Stories told, retold
About when young
And now old...
Huge winged machines
Speeding worldwide
Float close over
Nearly noiselessly
Carrying cargoes of love
Beneath that SO special
Moon Over Miami
Hearing sweet music
Swimming in my head
And even sweeter
Songs written--
Songs sung
Balcony leaning...
Me? Overlooking
Over ALL.

    Watching life go moving by...taking what you need from the moment. And at night no less - perfect!

    CES ADORIO:
    Though you probably do not attempt--you DO make me LOL many times during a week. Laughter is the salvation of humankind. As my memory fades...I'm wondering here, "JUST WHAT THE HELL ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? HUH?"

    Ces, thank you for putting up with my B.S.
    Gratefully,
    Steve E
    PEACE!

    MAGPIE:
    The way YOU write it, sounds pretty good to me. But it IS true. Just take a little bit, day or night and leave some for others...I'm looking for your post....or are you what I wish to be--a week-ender?

    What a beautiful way to look back over your life... from a hotel balcony. Gives you a good perspective of where you have been, and where you want to be.

    Blessings...

    LINDA:
    The moon is always with us/me. Responsible it IS for our lunacy, some say. It is easy--and fun--to write about something one is 'seeing'!

    CROWN OF BEAUTY:
    LIDJ:
    Yup! I lived in Miami more than 46 years ago, before moving to Naples. So, yes...memories abound.

    DULCE:
    Thank you for nice comment. I just write about what I'm seeing, whether at this moment--or in memory. YOU know! Because you do somewhat the same, but OH! in a so much more rhapsodic manner.

    KAVITA:
    Your photos are truly works of art--how you can even get a butterfly to 'pose'...Wishing I could paint with a brush. But that would mean more "LEARNING" UGH!
    Thank you for coming by.
