Ecstasy

Make a start Not in any order Go on the outer Then circle the border Fly your kite, let it soar Do not take less, when you can get more Never you sigh, Or ask the reason why Break free, break free Glide through the rapture Ride the torrid winds Expand your horizon Search for hidden things Play your music high Play your music low The salient notes, the hidden crescendos Floating and waning, entering chasms Soar to where eagles fly Let me shout, take me high For brave men seek glory While cowards choose to die Never to gain freedom from Failure to try Break down the walls, join the battle Jericho's walls were the trumpeter's cotton As the orchestra plays And conductor wields his baton The fiddler tweaks his notes To the strings of the harper's tussle A harmony of notes Toeing and frooing, crescendos growing Seeds are sown and harvest flowing Savour your journey, never to be forgotten. In passionate embraces Spoil me rotten. Drink from the fountain Take from the well Wield your magic ,then cast your spell. Not in any order No rules are laid Just make the effort Go on the outer but don't cross the border..
