My trashcan poetry

I believe when ancient men walked this land
there was magic 
magic as subtle as the brush of a gentle breeze
upon ones cheek
spirits who danced in the shadows of the evening 
in a world between here an there
who would lend a helping hand if one only knew how to ask
back before we filled our minds with self importance 
thinking we were better than the gods
becoming self righteous hypocrites
push a stick into a puddle of water then pull it out 
that's how much of a hole 
we will leave behind

when as a race we are gone

I want to still believe
but it's in vain I know 
but what if .......
in the soft pale moonlit sky.i wished upon a shooting star
if my wish comes true,
I'll be holding her tight.tonight
if I only knew how 
I'd ask the spirits for help
but in reality I know I'm looking at a mirage
for tomorrow will never come

Author's Notes/Comments: 
I think of myself... as a troubadour, a poet
the guy in the shadows writing bad poetry
and stories of the things He's felt and seen
or maybe just the village idiot with time to kill
cause He can't sleep

Some people leave

Bigger holes

Soft toned song this, serious and whimsical, fanciful and wise, solid and permeable. Star wishing and a few ideas on magic - u astonish me, Trashcan Troubadour!  ~ allets ~
