I love you

and you know

I'll not repeat

words are but a shadow



of the beauty that's lit

in our hearts' endless glow

when our life's story in old age does unfold

our love will still gloriously grow

Mosaic of beauty
  as colours come together
   perfect symmetry

Most of life

is repetition

but nothing should curb

your enthusiasm and inspiration

When I walk in a lonely place in the countryside, or by a lake or in a light forest, the silence often evokes some strange sadness or nostalgia which comes in a flash and leaves me in a state of awe.  
With such, there's a tinge of the transcendental.

I return home in a state of suspended wonder

If you have learnt

to live with yourself

it's enough grace

you'd need little else

Dear Albert,  you are right but the truth is that I begin by identifying what I CAN'T.  This I have practised all my life---I was so poor in sports--I tried but nature never gave me any talent in this regard.

So, I escaped into books, reading mainly poetry. While my peers were having such great fun at the field, I was sitting under a shade, reading.  I was lonely but not sad. Nature determines my core being but I am not trapped as I have great curiosity---I taught myself to play the violin (you did better!), to sing tenor and in my winter-years, to compose light melodies.  

The I CAN is so much less than I CAN'T but I have been somewhat happy with my I CAN'T.



I remain

yours in perpetual admiration

Peter Can't
