Array ( [sid] => 106567 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Horizons In Our Eyes [time] => 2005-09-26 22:33:14 [hometext] => It's been quite some time since my last post (many months). I hope that maybe this will mark a re-entry into the world at YPDC. Cheers. [bodytext] => There is a world unknown to treading feet,
A home to the sun,
And refuge to the night,
Where the stars and horizon come to meet.

Unreachable by those who know its place,
As far as they stride,
As long as they chase,
Forever in time, will their sailing ships race.

It is neither boundary nor space,
Not a mark upon maps,
Or residence to the clouds,
But a porous sponge…

For light to spend its days.

Eyes of many rest upon the sight
An endless abyss of flowing orange
And the bittersweet tantalizing night
As if the citrus erupted from the fruit
And blinded those who taste…

The twilight’s vivid bite.

Submerging below the sea of soil
The sun takes heed to the warnings
Of which the horizon so boldly speaks:

“You may come again, pursuing the night
You may rise forever, tomorrow and the next,
But I am seen, before you climb
For I am the gateway to your light”

There is a world of infinite land,
Beyond the coasts and past the sand,
Where the sky meets the Earth
And the stars will come to birth.

Forever is the sight,
And never will it die…

For the horizon’s in our eyes. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 169 [topic] => 43 [informant] => morelikelyrics [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Horizons In Our Eyes

Wonderful

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
