The final flight I have searched the infinity of desire With beating wings in the molasses of mire And I have searched the forever of time On the magic carpet of poetic rhyme I have created a world of decision With a paintbrush and palette of vision. I have harnessed the wild of agony And over come the terms of ecstasy. I’ve danced with the moon in the light of high noon With silver shadows on the edge of high soon I have challenged the stars and galaxies far And used them to light the richest of moiré For truth and lies are the wings of the dove And everything begins and ends with love If you touch the touchstone of understand. It vibrates the strings of ocean and sand. It is the way to the door without key The goal and the soul of the sand and the sea |

And I have searched the forever of time On the magic carpet of poetic rhyme I have created a world of decision With a paintbrush and palette of vision. ======================================== I’ve danced with the moon in the light of high noon With silver shadows on the edge of high soon I have challenged the stars and galaxies far And used them to light the richest of moiré For truth and lies are the wings of the dove And everything begins and ends with love If you touch the touchstone of understand. It vibrates the strings of ocean and sand. It is the way to the door without key The goal and the soul of the sand and the sea ================================== OH SY!!!! I am the one flying... this is AWESOME...what a very very cool poem... this is a perfect example of what made me fall for your poetry so long ago... you capture so much and write with so much vision.. and wrap it all up in your always impressive gift for cadence and rhyme...

For truth and lies are the wings of the dove And everything begins and ends with love If I've read more genuine words, I can't remember when. |

"It is the way to the door without key The goal and the soul of the sand and the sea" Oh my Seymour ... the sentiments captured throughout the poem are beautiful in cadence and rhyme, but I must say, your closing line is simply exquisite! "The goal and the soul of the sand and the sea" This just rolls through the mind with perfection! MUCH enjoyed! ![]() Best wishes, /Kit |
