One time I would’nt mind Looking over some vast plain That intersects the skies And keeps the ground at bay. It would flow like blood Making everything live free, True to itself, it’s nature All things being equal. I would feel the pulse Of the stars and their antiquated Messages that hold some far out Distant meaning that has lost it’s way. To be sure, I would touch The nearest tree and wonder how old, And ask if it understood me Before realizing it was not listening. So I would sit under it’s canopy Using it for shade and shelter, Hoping not to get struck by Some idiotic sense of rightiousness. And there, in the planes of existance, There beyound my grasp, Would be the field of stars Laughing and playing as one. Holding onto their secrets, Like I hold onto my soul, Complete with memories of old and Sun’s, And their Stardust fun. |

'There beyond my grasp, Would be the field of stars Laughing and playing as one. Holding onto their secrets,' Beautiful images, Michael! Such peaceful thoughts! I love this! sp ...if I ride these dreams to the Irish Sea, oh, even there, I know your heart rides with me... |
