somewhere across the great divide
my soul waits to take a starlight ride
soaring to the
beat of a shaman drum
leaving you a path of cosmic crumbs
come follow me, I will navigate the way
oh, what I'm feeling words can't convey
love resides, out in the vast blue sky
within my heart a wild dragon flies
unfurling my wings,
I want to flee
into dreams, there's a place to be
into dreams,
there's you and me
soaring in a
boundless heavenly sea
somewhere across the great divide
you and I ride an emotional tide
we bridge the gap, the great void
spiraling in the beltway of asteroids
come follow me, I will navigate the way
oh, what I'm feeling words can't convey
love resides, out in the vast blue sky
within my heart a wild dragon flies
unfurling my wings,
I want to flee
into dreams, there's a place to be
into dreams,
there's you and me
soaring in a
boundless heavenly sea
somewhere across the great divide
I sleep safe and secure by your side
soaring to the melody of your heart
in the rapture of love, needing no chart
come follow me, I will navigate the way
oh, what I'm feeling words can't convey
love resides, out in the vast blue sky
within my heart a wild dragon flies
unfurling my wings,
I want to flee
into dreams, there's a place to be
into dreams,
there's you and me
soaring in a
boundless heavenly sea
Lyrical and lovely. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteSure had great flow as a dream soaring you did go
ReplyDeleteYour subject matter and words capture my imagination. I find so much inspiration with this particular genre of writing. Most enjoyable. Thank you for visiting my page and I'm certainly interested in the melody in your head.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, out of this world beautiful in narrative, meter, repetition, magic! This is my new favorite of all your poems!
ReplyDeleteYour poem is a wonderful tale told in the tradition of ballads. I think the refrain adds a very interesting bridge between fantasy and dreams.
ReplyDeleteTrue, if you haven't published your poems, you should think about it. They are so delicate and evocative. I love each and everyone.

Such a feeling is what one so desires. It is the peace and harmony that prevails that's what love is. Wonderful lines True!

what a way to fly, absolutely beautiful
Happy you dropped in at my Sunday Standard today
much love...
Your poem reads like a chant, a spell that turns the images into reality. The repetition does a wonderful job at making the dream images clearer and clearer as we move through the poem. By the time I was done reading, I wanted to unfurl my wings and be part of the dream. :-)
ReplyDeleteA lovely, mystical walk (or flight) in a dream world!
ReplyDeleteMagical and rhythmic!
ReplyDeleteThis is truly beautiful. I especially love "within my heart, a wild dragon flies." Fly high, my friend.

A magical tale.
ReplyDeleteLove the magic in this. It is a delightful ride.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful journey...sometimes one needs to flee into one's dreams!
ReplyDeleteGreat lyrical poem. Enchanting story too (combined - early Joan Baez)
ReplyDeleteAnd once again, you do such good things with repetition. 'unfurling my wings, I want to flee' has such a haunting quality. Lovely writing!
ReplyDeleteI'm imagining birds flying as I read.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully song-like.
