Oh, how I'd like to touch the stars
up in the midnight sky
To feel the stardust 'pon my hands
light years — thru the many miles

Aspiring to boundless heights
'cross the universal plain
Transporting love and energy
As I envision new terrain

Flooding the gates of a portal
of time and space between
On the brink of stellular constellations
of fundamental dreams

Never stopping to encounter
a past of restless tides
Only contemplating a new reaction
to pleasant memories of the mind

Perhaps I'd step aside
to merely grasp the screen
of a movie in the making
or maybe just a dream

Life is but a passing mirage
like the sands that fall beneath
the hourglass of time and space
as mysterious as the sea

Halt only to enjoy the moment
of a drifting paradox
And find your way to the apex ~
life and time's mortal clock.
