APOGEE Poet

Join a daily celebration of poetry and the arts. This blog gives voice to the academics, the arts, creativity, expression and the pursuit of TRUTH. All art forms, all academic interests are timeless reflections and revelations of the human condition. Passion, poetry and the arts fuel the creative fires that move me to expression and deep gratitude. My published book of poems, THE WIND AND THE WILLOW is available at Barnes and Noble and online booksellers nationally and internationally.

...the receiving...the giving...

...the receiving...the giving...

this gift of time measured in each pulsing

this gift of breath in the receiving, the giving

this gift of alchemy in the golden moment NOW

revel I in the presence of confidence

savor I in the blessed command of SELF

honor I in the passions of BEING

in the passions of BEING

in the golden moment NOW.
