Illusions In Time

 You are the sparkle
the smile in my eyes
a sunset each evening
soft blue summer skies

you're a cloud that is floating
moving slow to the top
of a minds glowing wonder
I hope never you stop

dreams held by millions
hope for the few
life lived by many
is time shared by you

the lonely you care for
joining crowds in a flow
with a mountainous wonder
you're beauty still grows

illusive you're being
passed stars your home
finding often you're pleasures
in nights I roam

illusions in time
bless the day I found
you're comforting warmth
as kings you are crowned

to rule over many
these years yet to come
showing lost many people
the brightness of some

caught by illusions
in time that will last
till the end of each season
has been left for the past.

It's an Illusion

there are many poems I have written, that I call off the wall Poetry' and they are my favorite, but like you and many other people who read poetry, each are different, some like fantasy, some sexy,others,political. I use odd words at times, only because at that time for that poem it worked. to me an off the wall poem is good when ten people, [ readers ] all have different concepts of what this poem meant to them, and of course it means, usually, some thing all together different to me. so not to worry my new friend. I'm John by the way. nice to meet you. I hope you will ask and if I can I would be happy to try to explain< any if not all. thanx for stopping by, and hope to see you soon. Mantiscepter.
