My arduous journey forgoes to quiet nights,
as I’ve been invited to float blissfully
watching the moon show his face in lucid water.
There, I’ve wailed a sorrows tale
looking for natures handouts to
resign the waltz that I had betrothed.
And yet how can I recant the atlas that brought me here.
For wasn’t the dance the compass that sketched my invitation?
The quiet does not muzzle inspiration
nor does it comfort a compromise.
The night air is crisp and as the breeze blows a euphoric gesture,
I'm indebted to the surreal.
The grandiose pilgrimage
has settled all regrets and
lays floating where the crescent moon has smiled.

Goes well with the picture of the moon, but it's sad, lonely. Not quite like the others. Hope everything is okay.

I feel a movement of calm in your words tonight.
Pieces........does a story tell.

Raven,
Beautiful journal you have here. I have been following along and I am drawn in and transfixed by the melody and beauty of the words that paint different pictures each different entry.
As we all are as humans, you are undergoing a life-long journey. Remember you have the power to take control of your journey. Never cede that control to another unless he or she proves themselves trustworthy.
The music is beautiful and inspiring in its own right. Keep on writing Raven, you have a wonderful gift.
Regards,
Petar

Oh my Raven, you are certainly a phlisopher and a poet who knows from where the music comes. I am in total awe. Such wisdom that pours forth out of your tender words. I shall return to your sanctuary often.
Blessings to you,

I love the moon imagery in this piece. The moon, so beautiful, yet distant and cold, but providing serenity of sorts.--Sheria

Nature has always inspired me to sort through my thoughts. This poem is about the process of healing.
