Joe, I really apologize. Guess who is pretty puzzled :) ... Yesterday I posted at Pauline`s Valentines forum (http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/1192051/4/ShowThread.aspx) one Neruda`s poem, learned near a half of century ago :) ... when I just started studying life ... and still am drunk from it. For the moment, couldn`t realize that you were speaking about my great poetic love - and his great poem! OMG! The Truth Beyond Obscurity
From long ago, a time hard to remember,
Thoughts appear as shadows and dreams.
The fog is heavy keeping everything a blur,
Yet still a few escape through the murky seams.
Dashing through the wisps of gray,
I can sometimes see a galloping white horse.
Disappearing along the path of a golden ray,
Through the meadow of space towards it's course.
The behemoth mist sometimes will reveal,
Glimpses of honor, respect and of the wise.
And one rare moment, there was a great shield!
Mostly it seems everyone wears a disguise.
Sometimes piercing the thick great darkness,
Voices can be heard speaking of unknown things
Sounding as though it is a time to confess
Of matters of which only is spoken to Kings.
There are times when nothing seems to appear
From the depths beyond this bleary curtain,
Because of the noise from outside the internal sphere.
"Silence!" is commanded by the voice of which spoke the creation.
Moments of meandering whispers of nurturing vibes
Can be heard by my warm and receptive heart.
Ah, the blessings of which words cannot describe
With a power that one never desires from to be apart!
There must be a reason to have all these thoughts
Just beyond the grasp inside the opague haze,
Quietly I search for the things apparently sought
My awareness sending out a life giving praise!
