My consciousness emerges
from the night and awakens
to the morning light
streaming in through my window
the light that woke me up
disturbed my dreams,
A modest wish--
I long to remain –
to linger a little while longer,
caught in between worlds,
caught in between worlds,
the place where one is
not yet fully awake,
barely a toehold
in my dream-scape.
Drifting in its currents
I try and translate the images but now only
see with eyes of this world, fleeting thoughts
of endless possibilities playing in my head
Ideas which I toy with
and create out of curiosity and wonder,
slipping away as the light
draws me further into the day,
casting its net around me
anchoring me in
this world of experience
Eyes wide open,
mesmerized by the light stream
I try and get my
bearings in this day,
bearings in this day,
to this hour,
The familiar landscape
of this world of reality,
my senses reaching
out towards the new day,
I search in the light for the variations
of the changing images
that translate into
the language of the senses
which bears my name
and gives meaning to my life.

The Uninvited
My consciousness emerges from the night
My consciousness emerges from the night
and awakens to the morning light streaming in
through my window
the light that woke me up -
disturbed my dreams.
A modest wish-- I long to remain –
to linger a little while longer,
caught in between worlds, the place where
caught in between worlds, the place where
one is not yet fully awake,
barely a toehold in my dream-scape,
drifting in its currents
I try and translate the images
but now only see
with eyes of this world,
fleeting thoughts of endless possibilities
playing in my head --
ideas which I toy with and create
out of curiosity and wonder,
slipping away as the light draws me further into the day,
casting its net around me
anchoring me in this world of experience –
eyes wide open, mesmerized by the light stream,
I try and get my bearings in this day, to this hour,
the familiar landscape of this world of reality,
my senses reaching out towards the new day,
I search in the light for the variations
of the changing images that
translate into the language of the senses
which bears my name and
gives meaning to my life.
