My Good Shepherd

the stars
are miles away
calling me to false gods
but the Maker of minds summons
me home



1989

My favorite and chopped due to unable-to-format-my-work

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
