The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Invisible


Ozymandias

Recommended Posts

I have seen a cat without a grin;

I have seen a grin without a cat

I have walked with an elephant in flight

I've argued with a cat in a hat

 

I have walked with the animals

talked with the animals

Before and after going through

the wardrobe or the looking glass

 

I have flown to Mars long before

man could

Shivered in the cold and marveled

at its forests

 

I cleared the peg-legged corpse

from the spear in whale's side

I felt in wonder and confusion

as the baby kicked from the inside

 

My nose has gone very runny for reasons

very small

as a low hum emanates from the

downstairs hall

 

I stand upon the hillside

and feel the soft caress

then gentle push upon my face

 

I study and admire great leaders

who were and have never been

That is why I believe in things unseen

 

 

Dedicated to a happy reunion for Tralla and her muse.

I have read words

that have left in my mind

imprinted pictures

of places and times

and faces and voices

painted with colors of rhyme.

 

I have read words

that have opened my eyes

to the seeing of mystery

in the mundane of life

and the brightness of suns

shining within other skies.

 

I have read the words

of this poem with a smile

remembering the feel

of the touch on my mind

of actions and notions

I did not see first with my eyes.

 

A very fine piece of work, Ozymandius. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
