No one is alone
in the quiet of the world.
The sky leans down,
the broad sea opens
and the forgiving earth
holds your sorrow.
Though you’ve traveled far,
weary from so many miles,
you are still beloved
by Those who bring the sun
and even now write your story
in the book of life eternal.
Reading of “Still Beloved” with music by Eduardo Falú
Thank you!
Yes, we are eternally loved by Life.
Beautiful, Don. I am sending this on to a good friend & ND classmate who lost his 43-year old son last week in a tragic accident. I think your words will be of comfort to him in the midst of his grief & sorrow.
Wow – I could cry at this one. Thanks, bard.
Don, we are all lucky we have a poet and friend who brings the sun weekly. Thanks.
Thank you Don!
Haunting, and yet so lovely.
Beautiful Don. You help me see the healing of nature.

Indeed I deeply agree, Don: “Still Beloved, no one is alone in the quietude of the real World”. There, in the core of Me, I know how beloved I am, when I abide still enough to hear the silent, secret SunBearers nearest by, writing my story as part of theirs in the Book of Life Eternal. Ah yes, O Blessed Oneness beyond words …
Thank you Don, I really love the spirit of this poem
