Streams of energy touched by the sun
heavenly traces of light from beyond
dawn set aside as miracle’s way
moments, so many moments ignited
in solar flares of love and light as
life renews, embodies the bounty of
rolling mountains and tumbling streams
delicate florals dance in the wind
~
Our inhibitions’ release unwavering
promise as fingertips yield, delicate
balance of sense, sensuality as
pure and perennial, spontaneous
combustion of joy, life everlasting
a smile gathers, seed to embellish
teardrops glisten as nature’s way
is nourished, living bounty embraces
~
Untold gifts as spirits to the wind
uplifting reminders, hymnal they sing
canticle rejoicing in human spirit
profound and celebratory being
touching the soul in harmonious season
of fragrance, of life reborn, heavenly
sublime recantations lest we forget
the gifts of life, reverential learning

A resident of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada since 1987, I am located on the southwestern coast and immediately north of the Washington state border.
I hold a lifetime Real Property Administrator (RPA) professional designation in the property/facility management industries spanning over thirty years. My studies were administered by the At the end of 2012, I retired from the industry to pursue other opportunities.
Canadian and International Building Owners & Managers Institute with formal examinations through the Simon Fraser University of Vancouver, BC, Canada.
In 2001 I came to realize that life fulfillment meant so much more than just income and having enjoyed a successful 28-year career in property management services, I looked internally to explore and discover through creative writing, specifically poetry, prose, and lyrical verse.
This newfound love of writing was a natural progression for me as I had spent my entire career writing professionally to engage, inform, inspire, and move client groups to responsive action. With poetry, reader engagement and response has been a tremendous part of my life, unimpeded by any sort of mental block at any stage of the creative process.
The focus of my writing leans strongly to the romantic side while also very strongly influenced by my love and connection with nature and the stunning beauty of so much of the planet. Most often, I incorporate high-resolution photographic images to enhance the reader experience.
I am also a freelance editor, proofreader, line editor, grammatical and structural editor of author book manuscripts and publishing services. View all posts by Don MacIver, RPA, Freelance Editor, Writer, Poet
