Savage lust of a childlike infancy <br />Your soul weeps in intricate ways <br />Mystical poet of the night <br />Let your words of wisdom take flight <br />Sweet is the wilderness of the forest <br />Dancing with raindrops from the darken sky <br />Your voice still echoes throughout <br />Your phantastic L.A. where you once roam <br />The city streets beneath your feet <br />While singing a child's lullaby <br />To your humble distant cry <br />A multi-colored rainbow graces your fragile <br />And lovely spirit and singing birds fly the baby blue sky <br />Singing your name to the wind <br />In a state of white hot emotion <br />You enter the hot dream <br />And watch the butterfly scream from above <br />With grace and disillusionment in the afterglow <br />Sacred vision, erect inquisition of the pale forest <br />The sun's burning rays will lighten the way <br />To your peaceful and forsaken kingdom <br />Electric philosophical poet, erotic shaman <br />You walk among the masses who like you <br />Will want to break on through to the other side <br />Where the madness and pain is no longer an option <br />But a rather sweet and gentle grave in which <br />To rest your battled and scarred heart in comfort until eternity <br />The mistral winds and sands of time <br />Have blessed your entrance into the palace of exile <br />That you spoke about in your poems <br />Angel of Rock, you are the prince of philosophical poetry <br />And your wisdom and legacy will continue to reach and inspire <br />Generations to follow in your wake <br />Death came like a blazing rocket trailing the infinite sky <br />Your angel wings will carry your torch <br />High into the realm of tragic youth and misunderstood alligence <br />Where fate has sealed your name in the lips of men of genius. <br /> <br />Copyright by Carlos Alberto Rodriguez 2005<br /><br />Carlos Rodriguez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-ode-to-jim-morrison/
