Mind And Aeroplane

Mind and Aeroplane

Floating over purple clouds

Sleeping on an inky ocean of night sky

Dimly lit, softly pierced

By the gentle reflection

Of your light against the frozen glass portal

Yawning out in awe

At the gaping chasm namaste

Equally amazed by the flying whale

And its cargo of contentedly sleeping people

That is, that is, that is

I see you dimly

In the small glass window

Reflecting the light to my eye

Casting out into our mother's

Proud black face

I read your mind, and hers, and my own

Equally peaceful and excited

As the horizon begins to glow

With the rising tide of a new day
