Original DDE™ digital surreal art: “Gentle Light” by: rob kistner © 10/14/24
There will come a time
on a distant knoll
in the gentle light
of a sunset drizzled mist
we will again
stand together
friends
and we’ll tell each other
of the wonders
we’ve beheld
the truths
we’ve discovered
and we’ll know love again
forevermore

Pat
Thank you Pat, and you are mist welcome… 🙂
I sincerely hope so, Rob. In some ways, I look forward to that ‘gentle light of a sunset drizzled mist’.
That gentle light is love Kim. May it always surround and sustain you my friend… 🙂
Ah Rob, I am finding here the reassurance that this yearned-for kindness is possible, and that a man (a Very Special Man, methinks) can see it (relationship aka “just friendship” this way.
You give me hope for my connection with another V S M.
Gracias!
May hope remain always alive Kathy, and be the link you, and all of us, have to a sustaining love — what the world needs now, especially now, is genuine authentic love, my friend… 🙂
A distant knoll somewhere, there is so much hope in that.
It’s a bit like “somewhere over the rainbow” — but if I can’t see hope, then I will manifest it. It is the 1963-70 era hippy in me Björn, that stubbornly believes humankind can and must find peace and love… find our way back to the garden… 🙂 …if we are as fucked up as we are representing right now — then for the sake of the natural world, it is time to throw this model in the trash, and start fresh… 😐
Not everything and everywhere is fucked up Rob!
It doesn’t require everything everywhere to be fucked up for this illusion of human superiority and security to come crashing down with devastating global impact. It won’t be immediate, it will be eventual, then inevitable — and we are already well on our way… sadly it is the slow collapse that we are unable to recognize, because it lacks a discernible shock element. Not unlike cancer consuming a human life. If one is being vigilant, cancer can be stopped, even turned back, But like you say Shaun, “Not everything and everywhere is fucked up Rob!” I heartily agree. So a great percentage of people don’t even realize (or believe) vigilance is important — that is why the eventuality continues to move forward, essentially unchecked. The blindness-of-denial. This is not a religious, or political, or even a financial issue — it is a fundamental question of balance — balance of the natural world.
