Cryptic

Sleepy moments come Drowsy in a bit Siesta floating free Body groggy Mind in a blur grip Sleep overtakes Falling into a deep Yet floating away A dry autumn leaf Traveling in time Yet out of tune With reality Journeys far away Beyond the walls of space Seeing bold splendour Moving at the speed of thought No walls to contain Imagination rules fine sleep No barriers to knowing Beyond sensory perception Seeing yet unseeing Come to grips to glimpse Yet seldom remembering Upon awakening Seems so strange This reminiscing Upon things often forgotten Memory seems so vague Not recalling anything Lost significance on waking Aware of awareness But lack memory A dreamer's vocabulary Then awake to hints Only vague strains left Completely disappearing Yet in this forgetfulness A certain constancy of purpose To refresh the body-soul Now awareness comes slowly Upon this higher promontory To bestow sure faith in destiny So I awake to be aware Of intent and passion Where grace abides to set free Leon Enriquez 20 September 2014 Singapore
