I've been away for the summer in a rural backwoods environment where online access was limited. I got a lot of reading done as well as actual work like a garden, fence posts, and even pulled a number of stumps off the property. Hope all is well and good in part of the world. --- My best 2U:) --- Apposite

A Blessing

Just off the highway to Rochester, Minnesota,
Twilight bounds softly forth on the grass.
And the eyes of those two Indian ponies
Darken with kindness.
They have come gladly out of the willows
To welcome my friend and me.
We step over the barbed wire into the pasture
Where they have been grazing all day, alone.
They ripple tensely, they can hardly contain their happiness
That we have come.
They bow shyly as wet swans. They love each other.
There is no loneliness like theirs.
At home once more,
They begin munching the young tufts of spring in the darkness.
I would like to hold the slenderer one in my arms,
For she has walked over to me
And nuzzled my left hand.
She is black and white,
Her mane falls wild on her forehead,
And the light breeze moves me to caress her long ear
That is delicate as the skin over a girl’s wrist.
Suddenly I realize
That if I stepped out of my body I would break
Into blossom.

And yes, my guy does have great taste in poems - he's so passionate about it - he has over 130 books of poetry! I'll go find the very first poem he shared w/me, right after we met. It really touched me. William Carlos Williams is one of his favorite poets. Rumi & Hafiz are my favorites.

This Is Just To Say
by William Carlos Williams
