I view the world <br />With scales cascaded from my eyes, <br />Encapsulating scholarly wisdom pearls in monotonic oyster shells of thought <br />And hoist my kited sails of mystic fabric, <br />Into this vacuum sea called space. <br /> <br />It is the time <br />For setting forth on solar tidal wind, <br />Sling shooting off magnetic celestial rings and catapult towards my dreams <br />To kingdoms yet unseen. <br /> <br />Across the cosmic vastness <br />I heard white petals of a rose crash down, <br />Upon dark emerald satin sheets of silent secrets and mysterious desire <br />What siren draws me to this place? <br /> <br />Acute my senses focused <br />On fragrant fragment particles of light, <br />Full throttle acceleration drives my hunger to complete this epic journey <br />Into the arms I thought were lost.<br /><br />Phillip Gallant<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-s-not-the-same-without-you/
