Break through
Vexed by the ways of the world
consigned myself within four walls
mystic vision of many hued rainbows
flashed across my troubled mind.
Whether it was, I do not know
human ennui or divine providence
my thoughts no longer sluggish flowed
my mind did somehow soar.
It wondered to the forest beyond
amidst the birdsong tranquility
the zest of multifaceted life
encompassed within minds’ eye.
The sky sapphire, emerald earth
the river frothing diamonds
in the face of unremitting beauty
my despair and pain did fade.
To be lost in ecstasy of reverie
such, the self healing mind
to be captive to imagination
such, the strength of void.
To give color to the grey daub world
such the power of compassion, love
to give form, shape to deep emotion
such, the endowment of words.
Wrote this long time back in 2004. Remember wining a monthly poetry competition with it.
