A Magical Gate

As you begin to feel deeply,
wisdom's heartbeat of light,
Begin to now see,
a pulse of enlightened starlight.
So start to fade deeper,
in states of luminous bliss,
As you peer through connections,
where none may exist.
Maybe you'll float,
beyond the silence of light,
As you visualize the beauty,
your heart feels each night.
So open your eyes,
as they close and you wait,
For a magical power to emerge from love's gate.

"Float beyond the silence of light." There's something magical about drifting. Your words take me to the stars. :) This is beautiful and dreamy, all at the same time. Welcome to Poetry Soup, Alan. :) Brandy

You're very welcome, Alan. I had no idea you read that poem of mine. * I'm blushing * It's very sensual. Thank you for saying you found my words inescapable. Such an amazing compliment. :) Happy Holidays to you too. Oh, I sent you a soup mail.

Thank you Brandy for your beautiful thoughts -it means so much to a poet beginning to share his thoughts - I read your poem : Somewhere Over The Horizon - more than a few times - you’re words just entangled my thoughts in a way I found inescapable . Again , thank you for your kindness. Happy Holidays
