In the winter twilight
of the meandering drive,
silhouettes of dark clouds
patchwork the cerulean sky
with weird images of animate
and inanimate things:
animals, buildings, ships,
celestial mountains
rising above a terrestrial cosmos
accentuated by a winding cluster
of red lights seemingly streaking
across a surreal earthy galaxy…
Upon arriving home as if landing
a capsule in a safe ocean,
this surreal experience remains
an imprinted mindscape
etched in this poetic mosaic
of quilted memory…
