High above the ground, sitting by the glass window watching
the rain splatter.. footsteps on the concrete with the voices in the street; I
guess I hear every sound on the ground. Even street lights dancing in the
moonlight, across the park, I know of glitter in the dark. From the window
view, I can see the colors turn blue, painting pictures as fresh as the water
clear. Days have passed, in the silence, the murmur, the whispering of the
birds; waiting, patiently and eagerly, for the hue to break. The footsteps on
the city ground now grow old and wear out, eventually, and fade away.
Ask me to define magic to you and I’ll tell you about the
ferocious waves rising and elegantly receding back. Ask me about colors and
I’ll walk you where the rainbow meets the pot of gold. Ask me to describe
emotions and I’ll show you the storm, thundering sky and the sunlight trying to
break through. Talk to me about going, we can swim to the ocean-bed where
everything torn apart steps boundaries.
~'to see the
world in a grain of sand,
and heaven
in a wildflower,
hold
infinity in the palm of your hand
and eternity
in an hour.'
William Blake.
Nearby a river with a boat afloat, alone wavering in the splashes
of the waves, he sees the stones on the riverbed closing in. Down as he sways,
slowly disappears into the mist.
