Eye Of The Sacred Blue

The moonlit rain fills my mouth with lost words
that sparkle from eye of the sacred blue
so I walk city streets in weird dawn light
and scatter apple seeds in cement cracks
to weave mute sorrows of our unknown tales
in ever-shifting tapestry of souls
that composes web of our national mind
I wear as Superman cape when I sing.
While strumming guitar that Hermes designed
from turtle shell, cow horns, and horse gut strings,
I walk nameless highway under blue sky
and visit each graveyard here to the sea
to improvise ballads about the strange lives
of every dead person buried in Earth
whose hearts sprout into apple trees that wait
in whispering wind for children to play chase.
I find sweet apple fallen from the tree
where angels sing majestic harmony
so I inspect strange matrix of its seed
to navigate vast labyrinth of its dreams
and from its secret tendrils reconstruct
cathedral hall where children in white robes
hold hands around the ancient Tree of Life
and grow into bright glowing spheres of love.
Soft tinge of poignant perfume lures my heart
to follow phantom hope in grove of trees
then gaze in blossom of unfolding truth
to fathom mystery of every lost petal
that hides true story of some nameless soul
who walked this world long years before my birth
and played tunes of faith on flute of my bones
to lead me home with pipe dream of desire.
Long black hair flowing in sun-gold sea breeze,
she gazes straight through my heart with calm love
from eyes black as night sky full of warm stars,
so I reach out my hand to hold her hand,
and together bound by wings of loyal faith
we blaze new trail of love around our world,
then kiss forever under Tree of Life
that drops sweet apples in our laughing hands.
Long mute in heart-aching sorrow of truth,
I wandered maze of this strange world alone,
till she took my hand with enchanting smile,
and now we walk together road of life,
so I sing words of sun-lit rain that bursts
from fountain of my heart to flow in spirals
around this spinning world on rainbow wings
and soak waste land with awakening tears.
Our children sprout from seeds of our lost hope
we planted long ago in soil of Earth
so when they spring on laughing wings we dance
together swirling happy by the sea
that first created our bodies from light
and cast us on harsh world of naked bones,
hands reaching out across the silent void,
then sing as one soul till we fade in death.
Mouth full of moonlit rain, I express words
of magic spells that beam before our eyes
visions of ideas forming transient truth
which molds masks of our personalities
from fruit seeds and flower petals wet from rain
soaking our faces to hide sacred tears,
yet we sit together on river shore
and pledge to stay together till we die.
The sunlit rain fills my mouth with new words
that sparkle from eye of the sacred blue
so we walk city streets in sharp dawn light
while holding hands to connect beating hearts,
and share stories of our childhoods to light
swerving way of faith through maze of desire,
because we create our Heaven on Earth
each moment we look at each other and smile.
