GRAY BLUE SOLITUDE

Inspired while camping in the High Sierra mountains of California.

Blue sky colliding with gray colossus

 

Softened by puffy white clouds

 

Green spears of life

 

penetrating stone and sky

 

Stillness invaded by whispering wind

 

speaking the language of primordial meaning

 

In some ways alien in other ways very much

 

as one

 

I sit in this raw beauty trying to comprehend

 

the incomprehensible

 

Trying to let go

 

and just be

The image, thought, flow, and wording reminds me of John Muir, and that western plain between civilization and the pacific.

Loved the imagery you used in here, it lets me picture every scene in this poem :)
Wonderful work!

Beautiful! A state of being that I do not attain very often in life, but my soul hungers for very much!

The very best way to be, part of something so wonderful, so vast. Truly beautiful words
