The Search

I searched the Golden Fleece my dears
At least to me so it appears.
The earth the sky the transient too
The Golden Fleece stayed out of view

Each path I took lead back to home
No matter when and where I roam
I can’t escape the gravity
Or brevities longevity

So I have found a substitute
Using the rest of my astute
And since I’ve found my alter life
I now avoid life’s awkward strife

I’ve built for me a light cocoon
To incubate my nightly swoon
Where I become a butterfly
To navigate a dreamers lie

A magic Isle of golden peace
And there I found the Golden Fleece

Ah Sy....this is so good;

you've taken the pain of old,
and spun it in gold...
and made it by whim
a fresh begin

Sy, it seems that as I get older, I also am finding an abundance of 'golden fleece' to reach towards! This one is an excellent read, my friend, and I enjoyed it thoroughly!!!!

Open the door and let your adventure begin!!!

when you "lie" ... I *sigh*

"Using the rest of my astute"

You started out with more astute than most of us ever hold...tis why your every word turns into wisdoms gold.

*ww*

Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much ...
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch.

This is one of the best yet I have read from you.

How cool is that? Perfect word play.

JM,
They are not really lies, but taradiddles
minor falsehoods, pretentious nonsense.

Seymour darling boy, ohhhh this is gorgeous, I love these butterfly dreams as much as I love dragon flights. Just take me with you darling boy, because I could do with a flight of divine right now. It’s been a trying day, which hasn’t got a lot better since I awoke. And this is just the remedy I need to raise my spirits.

As always darling boy your writing is perfectly presented and I love it utterly utterly utterly. Exquisite writing, simply exquisite

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

There is magic in the words that you weave, and the way you spin them so intricately.
It's always a pleasure Mr. Tabin~

You had to be born with all this awareness, cause I been searching for it and it evades me still. Excellent penning as I have come to expect and admire in you.

this sounds so yummy, Sy...
I bet you sleep soundly in this cocoon.

I loved the poem.
