Essence of the Day The night holds essence of the day That adds bouquet to what we think. And as we lay and dream away It forms a sort of interlink. It brings in symbols mixed admire Without the shackles of awake It brings to life minds desire Within a fantasies remake It’s the wellspring and the flower Another life another store With rejuvenating power To kill the dragon at the door It turns the stars to wholesome awesome And beauties butterflies to fly Adding color to our phantoms And surceases forever’s lie It’s a hoaxer and a coaxer And an aspirin for the tragic An elixir and a fixer With an orphic in the magic And I recommend it highly For the clever and the wily. |

Ah Sy....good! This brought to my mind that moment when a whiff of scent sends one back in time to a special moment and, for a brief, incandescent wink of time, smile at the memory... Ah Sy...good, very good! |

"It’s a hoaxer and a coaxer And an aspirin for the tragic An elixir and a fixer With an orphic in the magic" Excellent Seymour! I loved your thoughts in this ... dreamland is whatever we make of it indeed. Loved the tongue twisting internal rhymes above, great writing! ![]() Best wishes, /Kit |
