Burning: a Childhood Memory

Burning bright into the Infinite a childhood memory Stretching out into infinity race to green lands the planes of childhood following nothing riding to the edge before me floats the illusions of the past the image of youth chasing the kite high into the noonday air feeling the winds rushing to Horizons rim One clear sunny day all exploding light burning out of site the wind tumbles of leaves grass tilts in breezes in emerald waves the burning out in white the soft edges of vision stretching out into the endless space rage the green plains of youth reaching out to grasp nothing chasing the kite following the running dog the burning out of light burning bright fading into a pale night cool indigo hues runs the fields of yesterday the fields of play the fields a fade burning out in the blazing light rays the youth spent running the green fields to the Infinite Horizons is in Chase The passing days bleed into Yesterdays
