along
the path
if you are quiet
long enough
you can see
the buds open
and hear the pulse
of the earth
if you are quiet
long enough
you can see
your death
coming along the path
to meet you
if you are quiet
long enough
you can see
the buds open
and hear the pulse
of the earth
if you are quiet
long enough
you can see
your death
coming along the path
to meet you
Thoughts from Nila
Webster--This poem was written by my mother over thirty years ago, and
reflects a timelessness. She captures a longing so many of
us experience: the longing for special signs that confirm an
eternal connection.
Beautiful poem, Nila. You mom was such a gifted writer. Her poetry finds its way into my heart each time you share one of her poems. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I know your mom, jani, is resting peacefully with our Creator. Continued blessings!
