He sat their in his meditative state Wrinkles of peaceful reflections In eyes that were at peace with the world Having seen the far reaches of space In another dimension he has walked With his dynamic ancestors Sharing the special moments Within a dream state of spiritual travel The medicine man shed a tear to what was lost But the spirits reminded him of future blessings As nature recycles her might In endless shows of pure delight In the purity of crystals The heat of the glow of the inner spirit Taught long ago from lost generations How to do out of body travels The winds of the inner spirit grow cold In a bone chilling awareness As the mists of unknowns clear Into the warmth of mindscapes Here there are no restrictions As the mind floats In peaceful contemplations In the physic power of natures forces Here lie some of our guardians Guarding the jewels of paradise No impure thoughts may enter here Or face the full wrath of the council As the old mans eyes opens In the fire of his soul They reach so deep in you That you shake in fear Then feel his blessing of internal peace In a smile he has conquered you Without one word being said For the communication was understood And his message now survives In your dreams reaching out From deep within you D.Lester Young 10/30/2002 Tuscaloosa, AL Copyright © D.Lester Young (White Eagle poetry) |

Ah but that was absolutely a treat to read as my last poem of this day. How true were your words in the last stanza for the dream does go on through the memories and lessons taught. I really enjoyed this poem and thank you. |
