Deep within
I rest my eyes
on the nature of the cosmos
light, and dark
relegated to the mist of their
counterparts
creating
a strong sense of serendipity, and
of serenity
eschewing pain
delivering hope
and reminding us all
to know when to let go

Jeff’s poetry always shines a ray of hope upon the dismal and the bleak, the despairing couple that gives life that challenging edge. The last line is the summation of years of life experience. ‘Letting go’ is the key to wrapping up the past and leaving it be. Moving ahead lighter is the best choice when the journey is about setting the spirit free.
Congratulations Jeff!
