In Another Mind

A view from above

In Another Mind

In another frame of mind on the horizon built of art

Stationed on the high plateau still rising with the sun

In a cedar home, cathedral ceilings incomplete of features

Massive crystal windows installed to take advantage of the light

Modern art mixed with ancient masters hang themselves

On plastered walls not quite ready for a conversation

As the mind goes deeper into contemplation of the sight

Thoughts about it all stretch out in pastel ingenuity

Overlooking all this excitement

The endless ocean with rogue waves steps in the mix

Fifty foot high rolling monsters crash over to oblivion

Crash against the rocks below the home under construction

Diving back into themselves on tides as if they were alive

Controlled by no one with the wind as they collide

Sun light is the only witness and perhaps the little man

Inside the house, inside his mind, as pretty as a picture

With nothing else

this is one poignant poem very meaningful in depth and content

[Earl Schumacker]

Hi Sette,
Thank you for your comments. Glad you enjoyed it. Poems are unusual sometimes. They seem to take on a life and landscape all their own. Of course, naturally, with a little push from us. Have a great day. Earl
