Miraculous Night

A tangerine moon glides across the sky; I am enamored, of its beauty. Twilight expires and gives way to dreamtime enchantments. A color swirl opens the door; behind it lay monsters. Faces shape shifting into familiar friends, are more than archetypes; they are swimmers in unconscious waters. The etheric ocean holds many secrets, possessing great wisdom; both a deadly and holy place; here we all must come. The mortal, is a perpetually swinging pendulum with no course. The soul is a traveler of realms unseen by mortal eyes; a journeyman; his life gathers much to live by; success is all around us. Mortality is a soul’s prison; it’s up to everyone to parole themselves. In freedom, we grow; we help others grow. The temple is within; the library is free; never closing its doors. To grow and progress a soul has no choice, but to read, each night. When Mother Moon sleeps, she brings new miracles into the coming nights; how I do love to sleep.

The course of a human's life - birth and death rhyme, wonder if initially whoever wrote the first English dictionary intended them to rhyme. Great write MLK. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer

Now there's a thought...I wonder too. Thanks.

This would have been more than enough " The mortal, is a perpetually swinging pendulum with no course. The soul is a traveler of realms unseen by mortal eyes; a journeyman; his life gathers much to live by; success is all around us." The rest was just showing off!
