Wanderlust Break

unknown distance luring incessant thoughts 
sultry soul swims, an unseen green pasture.
mind breaks away, a mess of cluttered knots 
gypsy blood in heart, breathes vintage nature
wild lands of freedom, where vistas rapture
in mystic woods crave, seamless adventure.
     
faraway landscape, beckoning beyond
an atlas horizon, sketched in colour.
drifting over mountains, brunette and blonde
a bird from cage, escapes to discover
unhurried butterfly comes to touch her 
nightingale song, melodies her wonder 

crumbling walls all around, falls a safe roof.
coherent like sky,... nomadic like sea.   
inhaling blue....unworried and aloof..
a spirit drifts, amid quasar waves free
a galaxy of clouds, floating to flee
emotions stirred, in a carol of glee.
       
In nonrhythmic breath, of far wanderlust 
Need a stowaway break, confess I must.
