NEW LEADERSHIP

A handsome hand has passed over the eyes tears have ceased - frowns been denied. Firm fingers have stretched across the mouth, tieing the tongue - not to cry out! A breeze has past unnoticed by the 'free', garnering winds of change - a forced reminder "just be"! A stilted silence has settledover the land,surmised by intentionsthey don't understand - embedded in time,by Fate's inveigled hand.

Favorite Poets: Too many to narrow down, but briefly :, AUDEN, T.S. ELIOT, DICKENSON, RILKE, THOREAU, RUMI ... the list is endless. Am inspired by many, especially those that live lives of "quiet desperation, and go to the grave with a song still in them" (THoreau)
