A dream in Braille Worn the touch of Braille to skin The sands of time has worn so thin To touch the bottom of my sea To stir again my life with thee It’s there I found the vein of gold The staple to my age of old The manna of my desert stroll My ecstasy and food of soul I sleuth it through Chantilly lace The bed and rose that I embraced Locked it in my Ivy tower The food and flower of my power It’s there my eyes can see the light And bring the stars back to my night Reach in and touch my prime of core To time my heart forevermore It’s here my sun is born and done Where one and one is always one |

Good morning, Sy! Glad I could be the first one to comment on this gem. I absolutely love your spirit, Sir! "The food and flower of my power It’s there my eyes can see the light And bring the stars back to my night Reach in and touch my prime of core To time my heart forevermore It’s here my sun is born and done Where one and one is always one" Drink a spot of tea with me? Have a good day, Sy. miscellanea |

On second thought, I think I'll skip the tea, grab this poem, and run with it to my library for that rainy day when I need a fresh cup of optimism. Thanks for being you! misc'e |

See more: A fine poem to open my day... Braille is a tactful word, used well here, I assume to signify the touching not only of bodies, but also by minds. My mind wanders all around when I read a poem such as this...Perhaps I am looking too deep, but their seems to be a magical potion in here somewhere, something that raises the braille dots higher, so that you can feel their touch more intensly? Doesn't matter though, the face value of the poem is worth the price of the time spent in reading..... enjoyed -------ice ><> Come read to me some poem, |

I've drempt in color, but never braille Lovely poetry Sy...I can never read your words without thinking back to Cape Cod and that wonderful Sy hug in person...can you believe it's been over 3 years now since us poets shared real hugs instead of cyber hugs...much too long in my book. I miss you all dearly. |

It’s there my eyes can see the light And bring the stars back to my night Reach in and touch my prime of core To time my heart forevermore ~*~ To know the braille of winsome dream is to know the heart, and feel the gleam it is, my friend, an ever-more, it is the wave come to kiss the shore. I love it when you inspire me! |

Where one and one is always one Yes, makes me think of binary... and trons... But this poem speaks of you so well. The beat of your drums so rhythmic. Good evening Sir Sy of Tabin...hope you are steering clear of the lastest hurling hurdle of a hurricane....I wish you well. |
