We Have It All

In the sky,

On the earth, 

I stand with you

And all there is!

So far, so far

Away!

Like the trees,

Like the seas,

I do forever remain in you!

Remind me of those

Our fields!

Our hills, our waters!

Time – ah, time!

We have it all, all!

It is our drop of water, 

Ready to fall from the leaf.

It is the space waiting

For us to fill it.

No rush! No anxiety!

Just your smile,

It is our path!

 

José

 

Namaste, and greetings to all. Between our posts of hilly lands, and blossoms; I thought I’d pay tribute to the poetry of my friend, José. I find his poetry so moving, and of an increasingly illuminating quality whenever I read it. I especially appreciate his work for the fact that English is not his first language. Thank you José. At the time when he returned to his native Spain, I was changing my address, so we lost touch in the material sense.  But, for me, the memories of friendship grow stronger.  I sincerely hope you find beauty in these words, and I will post some more of José’s poetry in the future.

The artwork is many decades old, and showing it’s age. I copied the pattern from an antique mug I had inherited long ago, and coloured it in my own preferences.  It’s primitive, but I hope you like it.

Until next time, I can’t guarantee when, because my condition can make blogging, and reading in general, very challenging. But, until then, thank you all readers and followers, may you enjoy the taste of every breath, and know peace. Amras.

 

“Your mind is a garden,

Your thoughts are the seeds,

You can grow flowers,

Or you can grow weeds.”
