Rocky Ledge Of Reality

Sitting upon this course rocky ledge
of reality
where the fluttering birds of paradise
quietly soar,
as if the boundaries of the vast hemisphere
are limitless.

Wondering if flowing arms out stretched could capture
distant unity
within a small fraction of a second
of imaginations eye.

Where would one soar on fluttering wings
of limitless boundaries
that reach the distant beauty of sightly imagination?

Can I peacefully venture from this rocky ledge
of reality
into my own sightly imagination of boundaries
distant unity,
and still find myself quietly sitting contemplating
the limitless
hemisphere that openly sits before me?

I thank you all so very much
I am amazed how much praise
you all gave this one.
Somehow I did not feel this
to be on a scale of praise
in my mind it was so, so.
With that it warmed my heart
to know I captured your minds
within a poem I was not so sure of.
Once again thanks a million.

Nurse Crachet, what a great poem. I do hope however, this doesn't mean you're about to jump....you'd be missed at the 'Stute !
Did you know there's a new Nurse trying to take your place ?

Munda, Thank you, and no jumping here, I've taken the long road back to the Stute. New nurse taking my place, I'll see about that.
