Star Flight Love
Karen Torbiak
2000

I lay in contented serenity
letting the peacefulness
of this mountain glade
wash over me

The scene is such
to delight the senses
thus feeding the spirit
as I rest from the
hurts of a cruel world

There are splashes of color
from the myriad of wildflowers
now humming
with the busy work of bees

The trees are tall and stately
casting the coolness of shade
for me as I lay my head
back on a tree trunk

The majestic peaks
of the mountains
drawing the eye skyward
and setting the spirit
to questing inner serenity

There is a happy gurgling
of a fast flowing brook
running down the mountain
to a river far below

Within the view of my eyes
is a glorious waterfall
with icy water cascading over it
making beautiful rainbows of light

The birds are singing out
with the joy of life
to one another
and my spirit feels they
have drawn me into their joy

This is my favorite place
to rest from the harsh realities
of the world
where I witness daily the hurts
given earth and man alike

I close my eyes
that I may release my spirit
and wrap it in a fantasy
made just for me

The weaving of the dream
fills me as I drift
into a vision only I can see
where love finds me

Opening my eyes I find
I am drawn towards
the waterfall knowing
that someone is calling
me from a distance

Following the instincts
of my soul I go to the waterfall
and without a thought
walk into it

The icy freshness of it
makes my body tingle
as every nerve comes alive
to receive that given

Passing through the waterfall
there is no surprise
as I enter another world
on the other side

It is night here
in this beautiful place
with the sky lit
with the magnificence
of the stars

Not being able to draw
my eyes from their brilliance
I realize that none
of the patterns
of this sky are familiar

They seem to beckon me
with unearthly beauty
that I may sore among them
and learn their hidden secrets

From the corner of my eyes
I notice a movement
that takes me away
from the wonders above me

There walking towards me
is a man with a gentle smile
of love on his face
which reflects handsome
in the starlight

My heart jumps in my chest
for though in life I know
not this man still
to my soul he has been known
for all time

He smiles with joy
as he sees reflected
in my eyes the knowledge
that I too know him
and have no fear

Opening his arms to me
I am wrapped in a love
that fills me with the magic
of love only two souls
brought together
as one can share

Bending to me
his lips touch mine
first with gentleness
quickly turning to a
passionate possession
which leaves me breathless

Holding me very close
he takes flight
to the very stars
which have called
out to me

Filled with love and joy
I become light as I sore
among the brilliance
of the stars
with the man I love

We share awed reverence
as we explore and fill
our spirits
with the sights
only had among the stars

My love pulls me closer
as we pass the cold
emptiness of a black hole
that leaves me shivering

We share the warmth
of a sun as parts
erupt with giant steams
of flame shooting far
above it’s surface

We marvel together
as we feel the music
sang among the stars
whose beginning is not known

We follow the brilliant
tail of a comet
out racing it as it
streaks across
unfamiliar star systems

Such a flight
through the stars has never
been known by man
as love sets
vision to reality

Returning he kisses me
with great tenderness
and a promise
that we will yet
share many such
Star Flights

I open my eyes
to the serenity
of the mountains
feeling in my heart
there is one to share
the stars with me

Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams.
