Sea of Dreams
Sea of dreams of liquid glass,
infusing the real with the unreal,
the quixotic with the mundane,
a journey into the imaginary,
waters painted with an aquatic blue,
stretched across the canvas,
flowing across the glassy surface
on the playground of the sea giants
with swirling tails that kick up the waves
and the gentle air that subdues them,
and aquatic angels with celestial fins
who anoint and soothe the waters with their
imperial scepters and infuse
their holy waters into earthen waters,
carving out a pathway to Poets’ Island.
“Come ride on boats with hypnotic eyes
that can put you in a trance,
that can bring the unreal before you and
cast you adrift but in sagacious waters
with assuring sails that know the way,
that have the key to the other world
where imagination can change the ships
into celestrial carriages that can
fly across the universe with one wave
of the magic wand, or can dislodge
Poets’ Island from its mooring and
bring it to you.
You are a seafaring passenger
signed up for the ride,
to embark upon a journey
into the imaginary world of the poet.”
