Lofty Dream
All the time, all my life
I've been chasing a dream
of catching the wind
But how could I explain the gleam
Without confounding the mind
Of things the senses cannot perceive
Is hard to believe
So how could I explain
Things only the heart could see
In such hour of quiet meditation
When transported to the mount beyond the sea
To experience the joy of divine revelation
How could I explain
Esoteric manifestation
Without a psychiatric advice
So they may say this is mental infestation
You must be living in a fool's Paradise
So all these years, all by myself
I kept pushing toward the lofty height
Brooding over the vision day and night, talking
Calling things that be not, to come to light
And in conceiving something out of nothing
I birthed a brainchild from the wind
Such a novelty that blew the mind
