The First eyes to see
the world
Red blue green
all over we place
The lives we will trace
into the sands
of this place
our new land
over again a world
and a friend
For it will remain
The stars are new names
the world turns again
and we are reborn
In the light of new days
Suns never shared
worlds unprepared
The new Earth
Our old ways
Bring forward new days
the suns bitter glare
singing our hair
And all around is peace
in still musty air


  Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

This  gives us something to think about.
reminds me of a poem I did over 30 years ago, something like a new world.
anyway this An interesting poem< !signature-->

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

this is a very cool poem...
I love its cryptic, celestial effect.
mystical and melancholy,
much like the poet  
later gator,

I know it's been a long road
To get these towns behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow--
I am there for you ...
and you're there for me ...
Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where I stand I am
Heart
Heart in hand
~vertical horizon~
