A welcome weight

A welcome weight

Easy to carry

A lightness of touch

Upon

Unburdened shoulders

The surety of love

More than a word

Creating a world

Of value

Intrinsically linked

To my survival

Every word found

Described

How to build it

To establish a presence

Enable a present

Its peep into the future

A place where dreams

Would be realised

Dark mountains once climbed

Would lie behind me

A view

Of the past

Last seen

Disappearing

Over the horizon

Surveyed together

Past present

And future

A picture of sublime

Beauty

A poetry of sorts

Lacking real substance

With little meat

On the bones

Ephemera

Existing out of time

As ideas purposed

In fiction

Wrapped in the clothes

Of daily life

Are beyond parody

As all the best

Lies are
