I cannot grasp the fullness of these bright moments
As they glide by like wild soaring birds of summer.
O what is the essence of this fresh, spectral light?
Is it a constant dance of energies? Perhaps,
The cold, detached quantum physicists can explain
It to me. Perhaps, the mystics will know via
Their prolonged, patient meditations. I've too much
Of a butterfly mind for that. I would rather
It remained shrouded in a certain mystery.
Although I'm happy to accept established strands
Of knowledge, it seems that poetry, art and dreams
Hint at other hidden textures of reality.
Perhaps, the mystics will know via Their prolonged, patient meditations...........perhaps always in perhaps reality really a mystery!

I would like to translate this poem
Another so well written great food for eternal thought poem Dominic. Poe always spring to mind when reading a splendid poem of questionable reality... 'Is all that we see or seem, but a dream within a dream? ' 10++ and thank you Dominic for writing and sharing your more than fine poem.
