The Colour Of The Sky

if i was
an artiste magnifique
i'd paint
a new reality
using a
magical technique
i would paint
the sky how it wouldn't be
and things
exactly where they shouldn't be
my thoughts
would be the colour
'understood'
and i'd visit my gramma
in her old neighbourhood
i would paint myself
quite able to fly
and you
transparent
like the colour of
the sky

This is beautiful, Sphinx. Very nostalgic, romantic and philosophical.

Thank you, Miao. :) I sent you some mail, btw. It could be another 4 weeks till u get it though. Darn snail mail LOL.

Palden,
I'm currently doing 10 mins right now, but I'll be willing to commit to 20 soon. That cool? Your support is appreciated. Check out my new meditation blog Stumbling Towards Sunyata

Tell me more about the MS walk...

Wow. Whoever the inspiration was, I wish I were that person.
Tnx a lot for stopping by. I think we both should tnx miao for getting us in touch. I'm currently bookmarking your blog, so get ready to be pesterized! (well, that intended to be a joke, but guess he died trying) lol.

An excellent poem! I agree with miao, it's very philosophic and deep.
