Seems Like Yesterday Mystic


I walked in the winter wilderness 
across the wasteland of despair,
reached the sunshine shore far,
washed by the warm sapphire sea, 
discovered the alluring niche 
I’d been yearning to reach for so long. 
That’s when I sensed the lilt of love.

Unveiled from the shroud of obscurity,
I followed the tantalizing silver track, 
the mesmeric moon made on the satin sky,     
until the dreamy dawn ascended 
from the sunburst hued horizon,
painted the opalescent dew drops 
shining on the malachite meadow of my mind. 
That’s where I found the fervent love 
sparkle with the gleam of heavenly ecstasy.

Our walk together in the gilded garden path 
ended at the edge of the teeming twilight zone. 
Its surging spectrum made in silence 
the ardent rhythm of my serenading heart. 
The melody resonated in my entranced essence
with the cadence of enthralled emotion.
That’s when I felt the pulse of lingering love, 
endured in the eternity with sanguine essence.        

You cascaded like an ebullient stream 
through the valley of my beguiled time, 
carried my dreams dancing through 
the dale of blooming longing
under the radiant sparkling sky,
to the pristine bay of bliss 
where I perceived the purity of passion
that never got tarnished.

My memory remembers the time long gone
when I was suffused with the aura of love
that now seems like yesterday.
