Music of the Spheres

Not once has this path been so clear in moons rays
As it is on this night 
in this haze, in this craze, what delight at this sight
in my bones and my spine not a fright- no respite
No cruel wars to fight breeding strife
No fear and no flight

….None on this night

Far distant proud waves steady pounding ashore
Playing sand castle drums
I implore wanting more, heart strings strum forming chords
Her sweet deep piercing melodies pure- and endure
The ages spill wonders and more
To ponder- adore

….Vast open doors

Kept sojourning East with the seas to my back
Bare feet dancing down trails
Keeping time, keeping track, tempos remain intact
I'm at one with the wind and her gales - I inhale
The swelling of cells fuels souls shell
No heavens or Hells

…..Alive and well

In distance a desert spreads gold shifting sands
Each grain tied together
Flowing strands, tied in bands, connecting forever
Yet loosely they drift through the never- loose tethered
Fulfilling ethers endeavors
Boundlessly clever

…..All will sever

Still the song carried on and made me a note
As it swept me along
Phantom wrote, years ago, as the universe dawned
Within verses the stars were all spawned- swelled and blown
Squeezed, crushed, thrown- into the unknown
All angles they've flown

….Beat carries on

You're welcome Linda. That was one of those foot in the mouth, couldn't have worded a thing more badly, asinine moments! I've honestly felt terrible about it ever since. I have nothing but respect for you Linda, and do value your advice and opinions. To quote a line from one of mine and your favorite films, " Did I ever tell you I was sorry man?"- Sergeant Lincoln Osyrus ( Tropic Thunder) lmao Thank you Linda
