Change awaited
Meek hungry Merlins
swim in endless sea of tears
Mammoths watch in glee!

THE MEDIUM
a simple soul
the medium
with more clean awareness
no intellectual tedium
when he goes within
when he speaks in tongues
reception is not clouded
by collegiate 101s
he needs no crystal ball
his vision has no surface
but is blessed with depth
with endless purpose
I would assume
Images within appear
sound filters in
music of the spheres
but in trance
there can be cost
trick is in coming back
many merlins have been lost

Very thrilling and immensely divine
are our smiles touched by golden sunshine;
we have reached that moment set by time,
and getting lost in sweet images,
we run wild and catch them in our empty palms,
not letting them escape to the golden clouds!
It's evening now and the blue waters turn gold,
and endlessly charmed by what we feel and see,
every song heard above is a joy to be;
every whisper seems another silent word!
We can be touched by the soft roses
that cling to the calm and warm skies;
we can hum the same joyful song
of the Merlins that gently rises:
be it earth or heaven, to these they belong...
like us who have sealed a promise with a ring!

Dragon
Uther of the dragon pen
Sought Merlins advice
How to kill the dragon then
St George had done it thrice
The magic lance the sword of steel
The arrow poisoned too
To starve her from a cattle meal
To pierce her through and through
Harald one eye came to beg
What reward would Uther post
Dark of night broke Dragon egg
Till Zinnger was a ghost
