A homeland, she thought with affectionate smile Not so far off in the distance Short weeks had riveted an entire territory Wider then one could place their arms around And here, here she was a pilgrim, at her own risk Notions fingered her mind Unlatching the giant porch of morning Of sunshine, warmth and a fine high brow vision Thinker growing legs ecstatically running into Spiritual deepness and enigmatic Streams of clear fertility, grasping for entreaty Woven cream colored suspension, carefree And easy… Every single moment… For what is there to fear….really? Wordless openings pouring with keys Being quite irrational, warm lamps sheen A Divine glance Chanting at length, rising and falling Like a wooden mast at sea Where books join forms having absolute meaning For a walk by eager names and there came… Secret places and chance perceptions From the bedside of a heaving wave Hush, be still, encourages the muse Brush your mind with depths of the ocean Warf-front and old city lamp posts Pave the way Of course...I extend my webbed hand |
