On an Island

On an Island of my mind
I built a temple of a kind
A shoal to hold my timid soul
An inward journey to my goal

A path to find my inner core
A journey into evermore
To fish a streams affinity
To see within infinity

And there I found a sky of night
A shoal of souls of burning bright
So many that I could not count
Impossible the huge amount

Each star that gleamed a life itself
All lighting up a common wealth
A coenzyme of now and then
All burning up the time of when

It was too much to comprehend
Beginnings to each time of end

Yanno how in the movies, there is always some island native (conveniently located nearby) and he paddles up, all friendly like, and shows the poor shipwrecked folk how to survive? (just nod, here) He usually teaches them how to spear fish and they give him jewelry...

yer like that.



(I have fantasies.)

Of all the stars, you are the brightest!StarsStarStars

Cast upon the now and then,
I wish I could remember when
auras did not seem so far
to dream upon a lucky star.

You are a bright one, Sy! Your poems shines!
