Poems and Thoughts    by Frank Maurer

Marian My mind wanders to things of beauty-- Soft clouds touched pink with an unfolding sunset; A brook wending its way over smooth quartz pebbles; Tiny hidden blossoms tucked among waving grasses. The silhouette of a giant Valley Oak, Powerful and dark against a graying sky-- Yet even though surrounded with such profound beauty, My thoughts always focus, returning back To the truly absolute beauty, Radiating through me from your ever-present aura.
