Some poems :-)
I've managed to dig up a couple of poems. The first is one by WB Yeats that I quite like. The second is one I wrote back in my stormy teens. LOL.
A Drinking Song by WB Yeats
Wine comes in at the mouth
And Love comes in at the eye
That’s all we shall know for truth
Before we grow old and die.
I lift the glass to my mouth,
I look at you, and I sigh.
Sight by Gavin Sheridan
To gaze upwards on a crystal morn; an exhibition of sapphire
Blends of azure and pristine white, counterpart of our light.
The sky, a hemisphere of pigments on fire,
Sun being the focus of our sight.
Are we not staring through a macrocosm of ourselves, as we see
Via a sphere and the hue of eye, a single source of Life?
We are lying within the perception of another, our day moving
As their sights move, slowly, until sleep.
Slumber; our perceiver dreams, closed to the world of externity
What do we observe but the matrix of imagination?
Each celestial fire blazing of fantasy, glimmers of memories and lost Love.
We, quiet watchers of a fantastical spectacle.
Did our forerunners have such a notion? The flat surface with circular
Surroundings, wondering what lies beyond our Warmth; Perhaps speculating that we
Are in the eye of One more, ourselves but bystanders
To the energy and will of matter exalted.
