#292 In Fields Felt Desire

In a world of wonder and destiny In fields felt desire The saddened child grazes the wood Searching through fallacy The enchantments of life Armed only with a lid of holes And the see-through glass named Mason Wondering about, looking for the fly called dragon To bring home the beginnings of friendship. ~ Through glorified days and starry nights Oblivious within the self-righteous desire to be The child turned woman gives glance to the eye beholding her Taking foot into the meadows of life Holding the hand of her knightly lover Enraptured by the gift of a single rose She offers a kiss to grant acceptance As she is laid upon the tending lilac Ensconced within the rushing energies of love. ~ Reflected through the looking glass Despair and age filled lines The hapless woman stares through lonely eyes Seeking to recapture through whimsical desire The life of hasty passing Reality surpassing the dreamscape days of youth As the smile once vibrant falls with the taciturn voice Where love forever shrivels to the shape Of one more calendar day. ~ Blossoms cascading from lucid dreams In fields felt desire Touched by the transient illusions Emotions to pierce the baby's eye Forthright to the justice of nature For all things being are happenstance Life given in shallow time As gods create in zany perfection The immortals born to die. ~ By: Darren J McMurray July 3, 2009
