Translucency

Translucency

Listen, the universe will tell you her secrets
From time to time
The world will test the bravest
'Tis truly brave
Being old with dignity
And innocence
The boldest and most magical,
A generation?
The blink of God's eye
The privilege
Is in the being alive itself
And recognizing
The horizon's view
Looped in translucent circles
And connecting the me and you
Of all existence
The inert
As well as the volcanic
The soul looks steadily forward
Creating worlds
Leaving other worlds behind
No dates nor persons
No rituals or special standing
The spirit
Recognizing the light
That exists
Between us all...

Listen, the Universe is calling
I remove my sweater,
And gently place it,
Across your body,
Of stars...

Tony Taylor

Compassion is the basis of morality.

~ Arthur Schopenhauer

That last, brief, stanza is utterly divine. A beautiful, humane and loving image.

You are a poet of compassion, kindness and humanity (in the best sense of the word)...truly.

Wonderful, my friend.

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,

This amazing work by you has inspired me to write an interpretation called "Floating Through Eternity", which I have just posted.  Your words took me beyond the stars, and through their osmosis, my brain filled with thoughts of our never ending Universe.  I thank you for your unbelievably powerful write.

Peace, Love and Rockets,

Larry xxx

A great poem, Tony. We all live In a universe where the ties that bind are stronger than the poles that keep us apart. Literally, if theories about gravity and the Higgs Boson have anything to do with it!
