Stroked

A spirit stroked my mind one night
To write of things I could not write
To light a candle in the dark
To start a fireflies embark

And though I searched the waters well
I could not siphon off the spell
The mist that seemed to form a veil
About the waters of my sail

And starlight shed but little bright
To lift the veil and pierce the night
And darkness was my only source
And there I laid my only course

I struck my minds illusions flint
And lit the fire of a tint
And in the tint I saw the glen
The why the where even the when

So now I dream a life each night
Beyond the laws of time and right

What you are saying, our Sy,
is that you left some mystery behind...
