Something refreshing - from a real Poet - Hope you enjoy this....
The There is There
Here on this beautiful strange planet, habitable but cold,
is it this distance and the radiation I feel that softens my eyes,
the thinness of the atmosphere, high and fine - but blue?
And gold! It's tinged with gold at the edge, this bright blue bubble
with its gold that is a day full of time to be spilt out...
And can't I spill it out on you? This day?
This time of a rushing tide that should of come but once
and now returns as if it can't be held.
And back to the questions of distance and time,
and is it finite, and why?
And all the while it radiates and flows, across this gulf,
we do connect, radiate and flow.
Suddenly the goals evolve, the There is There,
and standing on my crossed toes I can just see the beginning,
as it should have been.
Ah, the luxury of space and the longing of time,
and the promise of an expression to be shared.
Richard Johnson
