AS STEALS THE SUN





AS STEALS THE SUN ACROSS THE DAY,

absconding with my tears and heart,

my pilot-mind I let float me away

to deeper, inner-realms apart.



Pedestrian motives cannot touch

the what and where that I create.

Not Solitude, but I approach

a lovely, joyous raptured state.



I do not see what I reach toward,

but I am drawn inexorably on

by forces which know not a word

except as spoken in Love's tone;                



the throat whence freely cadences forth

the scintillating voice of my Salphire's heart.
