Something from Nothing

From some where in an empty mind
Creative phantoms key and find
A world of dreams and fantasies
Creative worlds of ecstasy

It grows within desires vine
Intoxicates like flowered wine
And brings from heaven down a mist
Of Eden in a real exist.

A world of butterflies that fly
Across the flood of air and sky
That brings to light a world of bright
That flourishes within the night.

How can a world from nothing come?
A world exquisite in its sum
And settle me as fine to be
As sipping of exotic tea

It seems creation starts right here
Whenever butterflies appear.

hey i dunno but i created a very similar world myself and believe me, it's really really real... lol...now.. i'm not sure if you can get something from nothing but you sure can get something from something so if you start out believing it's something, then it's something and then later, it becomes something else indeed!!

and your pome was something else indeed, too!

i LIKED it!
