Boy, that is for sure. Arrogance leads to a fall.

Just enjoy, Bella. There\'s no knowing what it\'s all about really.
The mantra I identify with:
\'We\'re here because we\'re here.\"
That perfectly sums up all I know.

How true Bella. We do think we know so much and in fact we do no nothing. Even what we think we know changed day to day. Very nice Bella

Accidental Poet said:

I wondered why I hadn\'t seen much from you lately Bella. But welcome back, you and your granddaughter both have a common talent and it\'s nice to see that. I enjoy the Sun at Sunrise and at Sunset when the golden hour is the gateway between day and night. The Moon goes so well with the starlit night. Both days and nights are wonderfully beautiful. I agree though that the heat has been a bit too much though. Alas, it is Summertime. I\'m not a Winter person. 😎

Doggerel Dave said:

Great work by your granddaughter, Bella. Now both you and she should get out and appreciate the moon while you can, as do I. for pretty soon it is all going to get dug up! 😜
Relieved to see you back on board, now with some poetry and exchanges I can relate to? Stay well, please.

A fine write Bella by your grand-daughter. There\'s not a lot of moonlight to see at this Summer season in the UK just now, but we\'ve passed the Longest Day now.
Half way to Ch...... Can\'t say the word until December or Goldfinch will shoot me! lol.

I too like the night especially on a moonlit night. Great imagery and a great flow with a message that deserves hearing.

Neville said:

I find it extraordinary that besides myself, there is at least one other here on earth who thinks and feels and behaves in a very similar way to me .. and if that were not a magical realisation in itself .. to have them write about their experiences and perceptions in such an appreciable way makes the reading of it outstandingly cosmic and likewise awesome .. and then some .. bravo Bella ..

This is an amazing write in several different ways. First I loved the subtle reinforcement of perspective by the introduction of the the thumb as artists use it to gain perspective but in double entendre it is used to hitch a ride. Yes a ride to understanding and perspective (how great is that?) The metaphor of darkness and star light is clear as is the reference to distance to gain perspective. The becoming one with the universe is a type of enlightenment as is the realization that perspective is temporary, A truly inspiring and masterful write Bella

We seem to see our littleness more when it\'s night-time and dark. Though I suppose we could also look at the daytime sky.
Maybe seeing the night stars help us to recall the vastness more.
\'Come see the stars, KP said to me\'. \'Dang it, you woke me up\', I replied! lol.

Doggerel Dave said:

Hey Bella – glad to see you back!
My contemplation re the vastness of our universe and the true meaning of infinity first occurred in my mid-teens, when I eventually ended in some kind of mild (but disturbing) dissociative state which in turn led me to concentrate on the here and now.
At this part of my life cycle I am able to visit once more in much the way you have described in your great little piece which reached out to me. For that many thanks.

An appealing lovely dancing poem, a bouncy waltzing read itself. Kudos!

Plz also read and comment my newest poem too.

sorenbarrett said:

I love waltzes preferring a fast Viennese waltz where the whirling becomes almost maniacal and one is lost in the rhythm and swirl. This plea for a dance makes my feet start to move and my body twirl. But then a slow waltz like this is so romantic and somehow lifts even tired legs effortlessly. Beautiful Bella or should I say Bella beautiful?
