A Voyage of Mind On the Wings of Wild Wind

On the rainy day of wild wind
Awakes the wilder mind of mine. 
Far beyond the known, 
Where lies no road--no stone, 
Thither runs my vagrant mind. 

Toward my home will ever
Again be back this lover? 
He won't, he won't, he won't, 
For broken walls can't bind. 

In a tipsy twilight of rain
Am I the jocund mate of which swain? 
My reverie he dances around. 

Today I crave the never attainable, 
Where may I find this undesirable? 
I won't find-- no --I won't find, 
To dreamy rapture whimper I to die.

Impressive , beautiful, strange and strong images like walking in a magic park of ”common recollections”. My father used to tell me war stories (his memories) when I had been a child, then, when he would became very old I retold him the same stories...
