Hello, Ancient One. The Universe is speaking to me today through Yeats.
You see, on another site, I came across a poem of his and sent it to my friend this morning, with the comment that I hadn't much read Yeats but liked this poem and the cadence of it being similar to my own meter. Here you are, confirming that there are ripples everywhere. For your pleasure, here is that poem:
Where the wave of moonlight glosses
The dim grey sands with light,
Far off by furthest Rosses
We foot it all the night,
Weaving olden dances,
Mingling hands and mingling glances
Till the moon has taken flight;
To and fro we leap
And chase the frothy bubbles,
While the world is full of troubles
And is anxious in its sleep.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you
can understand.
- William Butler Yeats
Thanks for the friend request. I'm pretty new here and haven't had a chance to navigate the site and do too much with my profile yet. But I'm digging it so far. I'll spread the word about this site to my friends!!!
Dear Ancient One - for all of us to sing along to . . .

John Lennon
Thankyou so much for the lovely poem and haven't been around for awhile is because my computer seems to have the upper hand, but will be back for sure, if only in spirit for awhile. Thanks Jackie
Thank you for making my day. I had not slept all night for the intensity of my thoughts and excitement of discovery and learning. Posting that little poem of simplicity helped ground me again, and meditation will take me the rest of the way.
I remember when I lived on the res in Minnesota. I remember how the father and mother love of God mingled into one providing the nourishment of freshly harvested wild rice, a duck from a local as a gift, and the flight of the eagle swooping round my house telling me, .....its time to go now....pack...and move on. To think, we come from a seedling, a stimulation of creative love, and that the cycle is eternal. Thank you, AO, for your warm welcome.

We’d like to show the side of the world you don’t normally see on television.
