At Last

My soul is that wave that

can never be stopped,

my heart 

dips in all that is infinite 

this much I know to be true

Love is from love

from all else and from all others

Our lips have waited

as if by the saints, one with breeze 

gasping for a sip of their wings

and whether ready or not is beyond me

as this, our moment has come to bring

us home at last

This writing is beyond all,
as infinite as the stars and the sky.

Still not over that elephant ..sniff sniff. Amazing that he/she was actually crying over Beethoven, Such a wonderful video, and thank you for sharing it and for your kind words here as well. The sight of that creature crying was by far the deepest feeling in all of what loneliness could ever be...the pain so vividly immense and incredibly inconsolable, but to see that poor elephant crying over a recital of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata ...well, what does that tell us of our empathy and understanding for these soulful giants.

You are very welcome, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

I loved the movement of thoughts my friend.
"Love is from love
from all else and from all others"
I could write a epic poem from the above lines. This is poetry and thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry and your thoughts.

Hey, what else was I going to do with it..lol. All kidding aside thanks for the visit Coyote. Always reads out like a different kind of cool blend of sincerity when coming from the hand of the storyteller himself. It's a good thing I think or at least I tell myself such..haha :)

"My heart dips in all that is infinite..." Pretty amazing line there, Joseph. I must say, it speaks for me, as well. With each breath, we are that much closer to home. Home at last!

Well if it speaks to you then it must be true Kelly...thank you from the infinite dipped deliriums for your kindness...and yes..home again at last ;)

we stave off death as long as we can...we "don't go gentle into that good night" if we can
avoid it...but sooner or later if we have loved in our lives...and cared for others, that journey will come, and we will be ready.
