Date Posted: 16:38:37 01/19/08 Sat This dream - this image haunts me beckons me to come explore. Walking through a village somewhere Was it on some distant shore? I couldn't say for certain but we left here in a cab and arrived by some strange miracle in the midst of a procession so sad My eldest son and i alone walked through those dusty streets Yet not alone at all for strangers led with dusty feet. Encompassed by a singing throng in a language I've never heard my son and I walked on in awe not missing the meaning of their words I couldn't say for sure just how or why we landed in that scene but the clearness of their voices matched their message and fueled my need Passing by each earthen dwelling meeting each ones gaze with wonder Feeling drawn toward something unexplained drums sonding like distant thunder And there upon a hand made chair outside her humble dwelling sat an ancient one with jet black eyes needing no words for her story telling Connected by something so strong I could not look away She sang along that chant the throng was singing on their way Onyx eyes held me in place The processsion passed me by still singing on their ancient song carried on the winds as i cried I knew when she had finished for I felt it in my soul and i didn't want to leave her but I traveled on alone I woke with that ancient melody still fresh within my thoughts and went about my daily chores hoping the tune would never be lost I couldn't tell you what those dark eyes of the ancient woman told my heart but I will continue listening exploring each and every part This dream - this image haunts me beckons me to come explore and her ancient eyes make me believe someday i'll hear that song once more [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
