Ever Illusive Beam

Some people write of
things they know...
feeling more daring,
I prefer to explore:
start with a glimpse,
or chase a shadow,
a sliver of light
from a strange door
left ajar, on a path
I obscurely saw – 

Some people write
while I more dream,
imprinting pages
with a glint and a
gleam – in pursuit
of some ever
illusive beam....

You have written the poetic equivalent of 'The Search for the Holy Grail!' This is going in my FAVES, Joe. I love, love, love everything about it. May the dream continue. ~ Carry On! :) gw
