Borne by illusory wings
It changes the stars
So I will not find the way
Journeying through the mind sea...

moonlight caresses our nights
no roadmap no gps
just following instinct

What on day trekkers looms
Up, foggier
Should no less dispirit
Pal, what, fainter
Ahead, life-journeying
Descends into.
Your home, does it not lie
There, beyond, too?...

And with no hope nor vision
We trust the Unknown.

Having no sat nav
For this kind of journeying.

Reach out your hand
And touch me again with trust

Roaming the prairies and fields
of confusion
Coursing the oceans and lakes
of delusion
Resetting my compass by the
northernmost star
Journeying inward 
—where near meets the far

Like the wind
stars love to travel
celestial
journeying
exotic vacationers
racking up mileage.

Occasionally
a brief stopover
induces
a star to
settle down in a new place
happy as a lark.

the sun
    journeying
through
the heavens:
an early
  appearance of the moon
at dusk:
a star
   so bright,
birds
  in flight,
the night..
the night..
love
 poured
    down...
...
to surround..
and
change
a world below...

Will and how
Theories now
Focus on when
Guidance through words
Tolerance and utterance voice
Introduction to Conclusion
Journeying through the open mind

A slice of skin
let's begin
the journey
journeying
where the mind may be
at rest
peace in time
time with mind
never concludes
properly
I've never been
a proper person
all that is right
is there a slight chance?
before I explode I exhale....

Thunder is irrelevant
When eating cheese.
I find myself trapped
Between the trees
Under the watery cage
Of Koi floating
With lucky coins
In their mouths.
The thunder is coming
Despite the irrelevance.
How disturbing
On such a peaceful stage....

The sea calls to me
Mermaids to guide a Ghost Ship
To far distant shore

Voyage of the damned
Journeying into exile
Led by siren's song

Sailing to anchor
Off a lost soul paradise
Sailor's redemption

My bane the Ghost Ship
Carries me off forever
I will not be saved......

Hush!
Discreetly they be. Clandestine
Journeying a void voyage,
Made for each other
Madly in love.

Might be
A pin drops silently
Mind is a culprit.

Yesterday slumbers on a bed of thorns.

Hush!
Sweaters in making
Knits a sock, as well.

Footwear and footprints in love...

Torpid fields of woe
A voice drones like an endless day
What have you come here to mourn ?
Unwrap your plans
Swirl like mirth
Between sunsets and Waterfalls
journeying headstrong
through gateways swirl 
as your pulse surges
To touch the earth
feel the birth
of an untouched mile...

My spirit flies across the universe
Journeying  into the heavenly realm
Instead of tasting tears of sorrow
I embrace the joys of tomorrow
Time and space entwine our souls
As we float on endless skies
I open the gate where memories lie
Never closing it as the years go by.
