Classify I’ve lost my touch of classify That once to me was apple pie Each thing a world within its core Has now dissolved in evermore For if you float beyond your shell Beyond the stars and wishing well You will see a faultless sea Of everything that’s meant to be. That’s not to say you will not pass Beyond this sky this home of grass Nor can you turn each moment’s grime Into a better moment’s time To me our sail upon the sea Is nothing but a sip of tea? A note plucked out an endless tune A grain within an endless dune To classify eternity You have to sail an endless sea |

It's always a pleasure to read you Seymour, love the way this flows. Maree The clouds never expect it when it rains, but the sea, changes colours, but the sea, does not change. |

Each thing a world within its core Has now dissolved in evermore Yes yes, to realize we are the microcosm of the macrocosm. Very nice poem, with solid philosophical implications. and i'm certain that if i drive into those trees, it would make less of a mess, than she's made of me... |

Sy, I enjoyed sailing with this all the way through, and chuckled when I read the end. How can one classify an "endless" sea? I like your wit. "To classify eternity You have to sail an endless sea" |
