Realm of Wonder

What realm is this to which at night I offer my surrender Escorted by the sounds and by the voices that I’ve known They penetrate the passageway that spirals into darkness allowing me to enter and to journey anywhere Though prone to physics of this world, my mind is clearly moving It often seems I’m interested in visiting the past and other worlds exist to which I find myself connected I’m frightened and I’m fascinated by the things I see But oh, should demons be released that I alone can know and images that far exceed what I can comprehend I then await the ticket home to my reality to leave behind this realm of wonder for another day

Mike, Love this night time journey into the depths of the mind and soul. Yes any realm is possible to enter. Knowing we can safely return is the comfort in the journey outward. The mind is an endless recess of heart and soul, dark and light and infinite possibilities. All the best, Susan :)

Thanks for this afternoon's ticket to ride the 'Realm of Wonder' special... I too often venture off into dark corridors, from which I turn right around right away. Fascinating writes, and Pleasant dreams! ~ Gershon
