Echoes in life

Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)



As we dance between
converging light streams

In visions never dreamed,
yet still experienced...  

Of our distant ancestors'
wildest imaginings

Even stars in the heavens, as we flow along
in an imaginably expansive universe

in each facet In the miracles of being,
Sparkling like dew on spiderwebs

as its song Playing life’s reflections,
in living projections.

Creating echoes of love
in our life hearts and minds.

Resonating
as we pulse and glow,

each in turn Adrift in a sea,
of so many of our kind.

Basking in the moment

in these universal oceans
of time/space,

blessed
to be sharing.

Passions for life,
here and now

In this space
in time
