Beyond the Known

Mystics see what most cannot see They taste a reality beyond the known The illusion of being is something they can penetrate with their eyes fixed on the ultimate The city is glowing tonight Urban shamans will do their work and one can take comfort in the fact that there are forces in this garden universe which are guarding us As we chant softly we can share the visions which populate the unseen world behind the sun

This has a feeling of echos and flashbacks that give such feeling here. Enjoyed your verse.

If my dad was alive, 7/19 was his birthday. I still miss him, thought I had been away to the States for a long time. I do believe we are guarded by special souls, and I can easily see that he would be one of them. Be well, Caroline.
