My purple skies set off with yellow clouds loft by
over waves crashing with their inhale/exhale.
The tickle of winds wash over
and whisper to mulitcolored trees.
How vibrantly the moonbeam burns
away all cautious sanity.
I half-wish to never leave.
But, alas, real life comes buzzing
not in the musical of these viloin bees
but in my school time alarm.
Please, just five more minutes
in this fantasy I weave.
My ears still know the not
yet ending slyph's song.
Their haunting mermaid voices lulling me
back to my nitetime voyage.
Wake me at the day's end
so I may excuse myself back there again.

"A writer writes not because he is educated but because he is driven by the need to communicate. Behind the need to communicate is the need to share. Behind the need to share is the need to be understood. The writer wants to be understood much more than he wants to be respected or praised or even loved. And that perhaps, is what makes him different from others."
