Sailing holding the night black tight Whispering without being heard to myself Everything's okay As I sail away Dark hills are brothers to sleep this night in the Highlands so purple so deep dark loving kissing night Hear me, we'll fly to a bright blue island lying in the sun caressing our skin we lie speechless in ecstasy breathing our life easy drained in the waking dawn grey peeking through lace layer on layer of grey somehow heals the soul of striving And flight so textured faster flies the flight above fluffy clouds i feel you by me we travel to Africa this time to turquoise skies beaches of white silk and nights by the stars so close silky limbs entwine dreams of eternity we sleep cocooned by the sound of palms and back to skies so blasted by rain shatters a tin roof smells of sawdust rise real people are somewhere near real people In the morning of us so long ago i remember a time of just being a road just was no modern thought just a straw drifted down my broken road [This message has been edited by allan (edited 12-15-2000).] |

Allan, What a wonderful journey you have taken us on. Thank you for sharing. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
