Image and analogy

Jeremy Leach

Image and analogy,  the place for me

Sailing across this sparkling sea

 

Thoughts adrift and in mind’s eye

Painted white on azure sky

Curling waves tumble up the shore

Walking slowly, my hand in yours

 

Reaching down for shells and stones

Falling deep into a world alone

Talking, connecting until fading light

Crackling beach fire, star-filled night

Morning wakes to reality

Of the gift of life, bestowed on me

Perspective changed by visions dreamt

Bottled messages, heaven sent

 

Laying alone stretching out in bed

I tumble the words in my rousing head

Footprints eroding like tide on sand

Memory fading like the touch of your hand

 

Sailing across this sparkling sea

Image and analogy,  the place for me
