Seasons, moons, measures of time
Markers to define moments mine
Mountain, valley and soaring plain
Vistas of purpose I to proclaim
Ascension, the soul's spirit and questing plight
To be free and embraced by God's knowing light
The snow a gossamer veil and blanket to be
Quiet is its touch gentle upon me
A calling silence I hear with each step I take
As I look behind 'tis my path in snow I make
Rippling waves of wind, untempered, untamed
From a direction it is so named
Wild and possessing these winds that enfold
It is the story of the West Wind that is here told
Seasons, moons, measures of time
Markers to define moments mine.

Nothing is lost here. EVerything gets a turn.
Rosaria, and so the intent... Dialogue of the Muses. Thank you for knowing.
"Seasons, moons, measures of time" - something I've had on my mind a lot lately...this passing of time...
Beautifully, you've captured it.
Karen, I too, hold the place of grandmother - this and time have intimate connections...
