Free will paints the world
Hurling over despite blemishes
Like magnetic processes of nature
You’re burning behind my eyes

Dreaming societies of weather
Like a gallant gladiator
Filled with enigmas folding subsequent
Like stubborn hallucinations
Absurdly prevalent, what I adore
Liquid ripples of sundry, does anyone see?
Light a candle burning daylight
To whom is infinity?

Desperately hoping the same instant
Like a loving mother and friendship
Plummets into a rising chorus of safekeeping
Not one sound invades the air
Important to victorious living, like the charmed silence of a rainbow
Oh Lord that I could cut out my tongue
Tweaking stained glass windows in mid-stream permissions
Look upon the atrium knowing the element, without diverting
Yet I divert and couple the minutes, hoping desperately
How only I can, and I wonder if it’s enough
And I wonder what more I could do…

Gaining new insights into the depth of inner dimensions
Like the yellow hair of the moon
Renewing passions with and for Him
From the first installment to each noon
Trying to life the sunshine to a higher plain
Under the twilight oil feverish, I’ll write again and again

Everything about my life is how I see the unseen
Book marking a verse, then remembering
Powdered destiny in a collective wonder of astonishment
Atonement by our own wills sometimes heaves our muse
Inevitably building momentum burning the seams
Hopefully forever…we try
Writing with a costly quill
And yet, with each new day, we are introduced to the sun

Over whelming sublimely scented lakes devise
And I can smell water, feel its purr and hum
Of thought patterns weaving humanity’s wonder
Trying to follow the right concept of what is beneficial
For what exercises happiness in others
I am a mere thought through light, merely dust of quietness
The dreadful truth is, the heart spreads spring into life
We’ve got to keep it from hardening
We’ve simply got to

there were so many enchanting lines in this thought-provoking write, but I was particularly drawn to this one:

"Tweaking stained glass windows in mid-stream permissions"

And yet, with each new day, we are introduced to the sun

If only we can make it through the darkness. *S*

I like this very much, Lee! *S*

I believe you complete the whole piece in this line - "And yet, with each new day, we are introduced to the sun" -

Very well expressed piece and if everyone would believe in the line quoted above,
wouldn't the world be a better place . . .
