Soft light which glows silver
shimmers across those
pathways in my mind.
Flow steady and I’ll follow
where you lead
for, I find peace in the
music of your sway.
Take me to the solitude
of quiet coves
Safe harbours for fragile hearts
which ache for simplicity.
What joy you bring to this soul
when seeking harmony
meditation
freedom of flight
to go anywhere that I please
even those places
I oft times fear
to dwell
truth to tell
I love your blessed sanctuary
Soft music
moon over water
what more could be
wished for.

When one has not practiced the art of meditation, the truth you tell in this piece may seem elusive, unaccessible. When one has practiced, the poem you penned illuminates the truth.
Ah, that third stanza is special ~ love this poem Bren
Oh what I wanted to say..I think green speck already said….Bren this is s lovely…….
Romantic as I compared the experience of being with a person of the opposite sex…great symbolism .
“safe harbours for fragile hearts”
we all need those at times. this has a serenity to it that comes across beautifully. wonderful write, Bren!

So beautifully said, Bren …
Interesting to how the sea has such resonance in any poetry and by moonlight ….
So Zen…you took me to a place of peace I so needed tonight.
Beautiful solitude…love the calmness.
I found myself down by the sea with you, not wanting to come back … the solitude so infectious … very nice.

I often dream about flying! I wish to travel and explore as the wind flows past me. This is a beautiful escape.
Beautiful it felt like a meditation as i read it. Lovely really.

No more, not for moment of restful solitude. This is perfection. Do you live right there?
Solitude, freedom and moonlight… What more could we want?
A grand place to go to watch the tides flow, and be by ones self, especially with the tiny island which is your shelf haha
So beautiful….you took me there. I didnt want to come back.
a beautiful set mood here…Safe harbours for fragile hearts
which ache for simplicity..yes..i get this…feel this…
The last stanza speaks loudly to me. I have memories of that soft music, moon over water. Truly there is no greater joy than this either in solitude or with another. There is something about music…..and something about the moon!!
Oh, secret coves and sanctuaries, you really drew me in. I swirled in eddies of imagination, lovely!
nice…you went to the water as well…secret coves sounds wonderful…a bit of adventure in that solitude…smiles….cant wish for much more than the beautiful music in that location…smiles…
