October 2, 2009 Far, Far Away
sometimes
far, far, away
where this moment becomes yesterday
mind traces fragmented paths
gates unopened, hopes abandoned
spilled over cliffs along torturous way
thoughts
born of single images
become boulders
crouching into rapids
damming passionate rivers
passage always forbidden
remembrances
infuse fragrances
roses at dawn's moment
dreams touch tongue
bringing forgotten taste
kiss alive with honey spiced tea
silenced ears gather songs
no longer sung
melodies haunting then gone
harp guitar cello unstrung
wind chimes ringing summer's death
church bell knelling week undone
heartbeat softens
breath almost unfelt
eyes only see far, far away
life lingers
savored
bathed within golden aura
soul awaits freedom
when body's work is done
