Expanding (Writers Island)


With muscles sinking into bed
We’ll ride a train to slumberland
Where all is what the mind evokes
An incoherent maze that holds
Free journeys into wonderlife
Its puzzling sea of endless mights
Holds depth to those in it immersed
An altered state for which to yearn

The crossing of a limbo
That one place in between
The realms of our awareness
A portal left unseen
To float straight through the ceiling
And sail on soaring clouds
The sky is not the limit
If one knows not the bounds

gilson,

you write poetry so well...it is not an easy thing to so. love "an incoherent maze that holds free journeys into wonderlife." how very, very true! its description so perfect.

and in response to your comment on my blog: i'm with you....one does wonder, right? yet in all the despair, there is still much beauty to be found!

best to you,
rebecca

Hi Gilson! Very cool poem! I love the idea of "free journeys into wonderlife" and "the crossing of a limbo" -- these remind me of how much more vast our lives really are. Well done!
