The Power And The Myth (I Believe)

 

Aphrodite’s eyes

Are too clear to see

Why I tear up

When there are clouds

In the sky.

Still she has the faith

To let the rain

Quench her thirst.

 

She selflessly lets

Her rosewater blood

Flush the tainted soil

From my stagnate veins.

 

Her mind becomes like helium

When my skull seems to full

Of nothing but hot air.

 

She casts a shadow at midnight

So I can feel at peace.

 

She the dream I can define,

              The blindfold that gives me sight,

                     The music when I sing a cappella.

 

When asked why I let her shape my freedom?

I simply reply,

 

       “I believe in miracles.”

I believe too.

Cool,I just wrote you about dreaming, and here you are unfolding what I thought you missed when you went to walking. Two hurahs for J. T. Stag and miracles! I will drink them both if and when I can find them.

My good friend, you create such magnificent reflections of the world. So many limited by what can be seen, and you invite us to see with new eyes.
