I saw you in a dream
You were so nice
Could remember the face
I tried to make it come alive
Through some art
To recall how lovely it was
But feel it could be better
I’m not that confident
I still feel it could be better
Will try again when my technique gets better.

thoughts soar
by the shore of contemplation
into oceans of ‘somedays’
forever stretching in motion
capturing the majesty of
my exquisite insanity
enraptured within a sun kissed sea
where hope has arisen
above volcanic mountainous mists
impervious
in its glorious golden light
glowing on symphonic waves
reshaping a mirage of memories
flowing as tides of strength
each fear, each barrier resides
broken and vanquished
tears within that soar
to the farthest horizon
of my inward self
then fall
into the arms of promise
delivering the mysteries
of the heart’s hope
I am lifted
to the vanishing point
