lost by translating the moment
into the alphabet
of desire

the page out of time
transcends its allotment
transgressing the agreement

that interrupts cycles into phases
of plausibility,
precociously permitting

life’s dreams to succumb
to pressures unwritten, unseen
seeking doubt among the living

seeking death amidst the faithful
holding the dreamer to those dreams
that settle fantasy’s dust

into chasms of hope
lining the walls of remembrance
with ideas of ivy,

covering the membranes
of the mind
with dust mites
of adoration

Ohhh goody ... another one (thanks Sunshine *wink wink*)

"lost by translating the moment

I seem to be chasing LeeJ with comments today, and once again we are in agreement. I could have cut and pasted this entire write, it is that good.

And this one is the last ? Well I sure did love it while it lasted and will read them all, again.

clap ... clap ... clap ... clap ... BRAVO!

always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same

Simple visions wrapped in words giving them a life of their own to touch the heart and bring alive the senses of simple things in life...it seems we need look closer to the beauty that fills our daily life...Well done...**Big Hugs**
