A Poet’s Wish

Let not my words that I say
Be ever heard before
Let the memories of my verbal signal
Flow gently against mind’s shores

Taste the hues of my tongue
As its flavor fills your mind
Let the rolling text consume you
And lead you like the blind

Give yourself to sublime magic
As it oozes through your being
The majestic words hold you captive
No thoughts of ever fleeing

Wrap yourself with fervent script
Feel comfort in its grip
Lay down your inner security
And let your barriers slip

Trust in me to take you
Where no one has ever been
Sail upon the verses spoke
With a complacent grin

The lands that sit and await you
So vibrant and full of vim
The paragraphs propel you
Down into depths within

Fly and soar above the lands
That we claim as paradise
Take in all the words portray
Of beauty and all things nice

The words will guide and protect
As you explore the promise land
Then as the end draws to a close
The words fade in the sand
