A Sea of Dreams Photography
"The leaves will fall in a grotto so solemn
The air so clean, so crisp, so forgotten
But upon a hill chased by stairs of stone
A feast begins, a frail gathering of friends
They are not so solemn or forgotten
But joyous in remembrance of battle and glory"

Journey
"Ah, could I lay me down in this long grass
And close my eyes, and let the quiet wind
Blow over me--I am so tired, so tired
Of passing pleasant places! All my life,
Following Care along the dusty road,
Have I looked back at loveliness and sighed;
Yet at my hand an unrelenting hand
Tugged ever, and I passed. All my life long
Over my shoulder have I looked at peace;
And now I fain would lie in this long grass
And close my eyes.
Yet onward!"
- Edna St. Vincent Millay

Ultima Thule
"By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an Eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule -
From a wild weird clime, that lieth, sublime,
Out of Space - out of Time."
- Edgar Allan Poe

Tears Of An Angel
(poem by John Kooistra)
"As the angel opens her eyes
a flood of tears fall to the floor
All the feeling comes back again
the world that once fell
breathes a new breath
As the angel opens her eyes
life begins anew
like rolling thunder in the clouds
Nothing can stop the flow of time
in the end all will be paid
As the angel opens her eyes
confusion sets in
The moment has not yet come
She tries to figure it out
The angel closes her eyes"
