I just loved that last stanza, you paint very vivid imagery in your words, love the background.
"What peace we had as children" I will never forget my youth. I wish somewhere there was a fountain of youth. I enjoyed this write.
The photo is beautiful and the words are amazing. I could use a year near the sea. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

Been slipping into those places again lately... slipping back to childhood days before the shadows came... Hoping your heart is in a beautiful moonlit place.

Thank you precious friend. The light will come... and the joy will follow. Much appreciated.
I like how you change the color of the text to highlight the contract in the last stanza.
I too, desire that "red life"! Thanks for sharing.

How I've missed reading what you write! Your prose and poetry are equally beautiful.
A world of possibilities and hope await the new light born with the waxing moon.
I particularly liked the first line, - interesting to ponder how differently people can view the same thing. Just about anything and everything is open to interpretation...

I appreciate your insights so much.
"It was the only time I ever knew happiness"...such an ach in that statement. But beauty all the same, dear one. Your peace even in the pain of your words has always been a beacon across the screen.

I remember happiness... those days long ago when sunlight felt eternal... But peace... that I've learned to cling to in the now... Thank you for your gracious thoughts, dear one.
those last two lines:... In ignorance of strife, we birthed the waxing moon. I am not sure that it can be any more seen than that! You have always been a fabulous writer. I've felt safe in your world of wonderland and at gentled peace. I like however these streaks of red and yellow...I'll see you soon again in the light ole friend. Dont stop signing that name ... it's not the end
