Another Corner

In another corner of the continent
soul senses essence of wild blueberries

Westward exists a beautiful wine-press
where faithfully my tired feet must go

Deep forest hinders slightly moon-lit paths
but no obstacles blight love's persistence

There's an innocent ocean which churns soft
perhaps underground or in blue sky vast

An inlet to balance reality
which squeals some kind of foreign anarchy

I won't listen to the cold bitter brew
spoken by shadows of winter's false tongue

 

Nor will I give up until I am through

for I cherish heaven's spiral staircase

 

Which whispers of flowers ever in bloom

and fair willow on far opposite shore

    Beautifully touches all the senses, and all the aspects of nature we might engage in our journey. The last four lines are amazing, so visual and evocative. Another great read!
