I.
Soaring high above the pines
never felt nearly so high
ever sincerely inclined to cast fate to the winds
feel the rise in my wings one last time
paint the skyline every colour and shade
as i grace the horizon with faith enterprising
stake claim on the skies
find the diamonds inside them
then make daisy chains just to further admire them
have never felt nearly as high
as i do soaring high above the pines
in this dream state i am weightless
forsaken no kind as i climb imperceivable vine
seen and believed to be just what i wish to be
such is no mystery
for i habitually bid to incline
with the wind in my hair and its chime in my eyes
feel the rise in my wings as i take each leap blindly
sprawled out behind me are teardrops i cried
to the treetops delight as the leaves beneath thrive
feeling seen and believed to be just what they wish to be
steeped in such mystery
aeons of history
kissed of the breeze they shift swiftly upstream
cast their fate to the winds
and seem weightless in dream
thus i savour the scene
from so high above the pines that it is either deemed brave or obscene
scale the skies
embrace the seas
seek out the infinite deep in between
keepsakes of namesake foreseen for blind faith’s sake
the mainstay of breathing when breathed with a playmate
here in this dream state
we are weightless
forsaken no kind as we twine light and shade in famed braid
and have never felt nearly so high
II.
Soaring high above the pines
never felt nearly so high
letting caution ride the wind
to feel the rise in my wings another time
i dance along a starlight path laid by my treasure keeper
embracing key sculpted for the fire of the twin seekers
he knows the way i knew before
can stoke the flame of creative lore
here in this dream state
i bathe in diamond-laced waters of illumination
i drink essence of moonlight memories made from forgottens to be experienced for the first time again
and again
and
such is no mystery when one sees and believes
glories beheld from above the pine leaves
living the breeze
breathing as one as we light a night sky with improbable candles
insistent on painting the skyline every colour and shade of heart desires
free to float among clouds that kiss precious pine leaves
linger to hear wings of songs waiting to be sung
beyond dreams they fly to the moon
beg chase to the sky high above the pines
fate sets the rise in my wings as i make my way to their destination
inside the heart of my soul and my keeper
my mainstay is self, threaded neatly in braid
with destiny’s playmate
here in this dream state
weightless
forsaken never as we resume twining light above the pines
we have never felt nearly so high
