PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I search for a place.

The place where everyone wants to go.

A DELICATE place that is the destination

of every heart that has ever overflowed

with the emptines of longing,

and beat with the pulse and spur

of gnawing WANDERLUST.

That place is called "Somewhere".

  It is found by "knowing", and not by "going".

I always find me as I see myself

coming back from that wonderful "Somewhere".

"Somewhere" is found by following the ANCIENT Path

whose direction is indicated by the nodding blossoms

of TIGERLILY ((see "Tigerlily & Bronze Man")).

It may lead up- or down-stream

of the FLOWING brook of Memory,

in the MEADOW of Reminiscences.

That brook goes on flowing,

no matter the lack of rain.

In imagination we can go

or be anywhere or anyone

required the satisfaction of our psyche.

  But beware the unimaginative souls;

the ones that bear the plague-spots

of dreariness and settled-for-less,

that seem to be so PANDEMIC in today's world.

  No hint of INSIGHTFULNESS in their eyes!

My trip starts with my accumulated moods and stresses;

the daisy-petals from the sunshine,

and the mushroom-spores from The Cave.

I tenderly touch every DELICATE one,

like one of my favoured lovers,

telling each that it is my favorite.

Then I press them into my subconscious

as ENERGETICALLY as needed

to make my sheet of Creativity

smooth and as WHITE as a leaf of paper.

Then on that achingly unimpregnated sheet

I begin as Scribe.

And thus my life is continued.
