Lost Love

Come all you 
knights and maidens 
a gathering for you 
in the jungles of life 
Traveling to the center
of our world 
To you all I hail 

take me to this other land 
Showing me magic spells 
Like the warlock of old 
You give me 
portions of love 
in the land 
of milk and honey 

Dreams become reality 
With all the emotions 
A man or a woman possess 
Vanishing in 
the Bermuda triangle 
The triangle 
of emotions 

Like moses 
the sea parts 
Paradise lost 
hidden in the storm 
Tossing me 
every which way 
Spiraling around 
in circles 
In whirlpool 
of air 
my breath labored 

Crushing like 
the great boa 
To breathe no more 
Pain and suffering 
pass us by 
All of a sudden 
I am there 

A mystical land 
beautiful flowers everywhere 
Smells of paradise 
Flowers of many colors 
a wonder 
to the beholder 
Beauty as far 
as the eyes can see 

Bards with magical words 
Turns a desert 
to paradise 
The land of giants 
Among'st giants 
who raise me up 
With magic words 
you walk on water 

Waterfalls fountains 
of forever young 
The departed never age 
Youth forever love 
Standing tall 
I am in paradise 
In my hand a quill 

We stand giants 
blown away each breath 
We speak 
of dreams of love 
Happiness in a fairytale ending 
Stories of pain 
with that of suffering 
Of good 
fortune and woe 

Dreamers 
a circle of poets 
With a pen 
they take you 
to the door 
Come dine with me 
at this table 
We are knights and maidens 
Lost in this magical realm 

Created from love 
Emotions 
from our hearts 
Hate the burning 
emotion of love 
In the sunset 
of our mind paradise

Yes, being a poet is great! We can go wherever our pen can take us, and we bring everyone else along for the ride. Whether, it is a trip to a fantasy land or deep within ourselves, we can go anywhere we want to! It is the only true freedom in this world!...Excellent piece!
