In visions beyond these
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
We’re drifting
here
together
Through these
shifting twilight fields
Of distant star streams
Following the currents of the flow
Of universal tides of being
time
space
While listening
to singing stellar winds
Do we hear
the orchestra of eternity?
A slow-motion trill of violins
Creating spiritual vibrations
which resonate within our souls
Much to our hearts delight
as we lose brief moments
to distraction
from the harsh reality
of life
All the while
intently tending our course
Steering our hearts-voice
by souls choice
To the core of the universe
as its falling through eternity
is sparked with glimpses
of hopes and fears
And solemn tears
as our candle of life burns
Towards its inevitable conclusion
Simultaneously
dispelling the illusion
As our rear-view mirror
souls
Employ afterlife recall
between us
And the chain-reaction
of our spirits
Call to us
from a Godly place
Through visions
prophesy
dreams
Be it mythology
religiosity
or miracles
Answers
all but lost
Within
our dreams
