spring forth
sweet sorrow
mold your dying moments
in the clay of tomorrow
whether home or away
the beauty of such reward
is a flask of elixir
we take with us
through the rest of our
breathing days
and then on even further
far through the enchanting valleys
up to the very heights of forever
its the collections of love
and love's sweet remembrance
that mean the most to the soul
and just like love
and love's billowy breaths of greatness
we need too the portrait of the words
that only words themselves can fully
create
to further beautify the world and
there for enhance the soul inhabitant's
experience
when others thoughtless actions only further
darken and corrupt the gallery of life
that these portraits of thought must hang in
for such splendid folly
we must hasten to move through
'A Habit Drawn In Myth'
yet fostered by faith
and offered up to the remnants
that is the very culmination of what it is
for the briefest moments of the soul's
existence
to be human
and so impaired.............
