Brilliant Green Glow |
| I cannot sleep and I cannot awake In a dream world state I am adrift Are my eyes opened or closed, I cannot tell Of mortal coil I seem bereft, A shadow gleams and an eagle cries The visions dance and I stand amazed I cannot run and I cannot walk, I feel the brush of passing shades What can this be, I don't understand Am I dead, alive, something in between I try to think and clear my mind And then see the glow of brilliant green The light swirls within the darkness Clear crystal beams playing cautiously Is it the moon or is it the sun Or some other source for what is see Then only a starlight glimmer so far away The visions coalesce and then cascade I try to focus on that distant point My emotions feel raw, my mind not staid I want to adventure to that point of light That seems the focus for all I dream Yet do I dream or have I lost my mind What draws me towards that brilliant green I still stand rooted to the spot But if I cannot move I cannot seek I force myself on, one step and then another I will not be thwarted, my will is not weak The vision, that glow, that immutable force My curiosity overwhelms me and I start to run Closer and still closer that glow does become And now I see two point where before I saw one And then a flash or just a glimpse, I see a sparkle of crimson and a flow of red What is this vision that i approach To which by the willo'the wisp I was led And the world does shimmer Again not dream and not real I stop, pause and think And now start to feel The glow starts to infuse the soul of my being I feel the warmth in my belly rising into my chest Those two glowing orbs, what is their power Why do I feel weak yet still at my best I shake my head, close my eyes and take a deep breath Let the glow wash across me and clear the thoughts from my mind The confusion is mine that I now understand I must drop down the walls and feel the light's shine Then when again I look, I finally can see That image, that vision, the source of the light I am amazed, at what I behold And cannot understand my confusion and fright For I now see the eyes, that glowed soft in the dark And the crimson of lips that before I just glimpsed And that flow of red light, that once did confuse Now cascades down the shoulders of the sweetest of nymphs I thought to myself that it must be dream For I have never seen a vision like this when awake Those sweet eyes and soft lips, the long flowing hair And the curves, oh those curves, it would make any man break And this sweet lovely vision that I now at last see, This vision, this goddess, I am simply amazed I stand simply dumbfounded bathed in the light Of her glow and her womanhood, my senses are dazed And still the thing that intrigues me the most, That draws me inside the circle of brilliance Is that incredible mind that makes me think, That keeps me guessing at its resilience And so dear Witch, now I know I'm awake, I have opened my eyes and seen the bright glow And it wasn't a dream, (though it seemed like a spell) So much more to learn, so much more to know By Mr. Garrett J.
