This Is My Stay (words)

This Is My Stay (words)

Within the imagination, I am content to live,
This is my stay.
I see how plenty, how ever-expanding it is,
"the all" a rich array
of rotating rainbow color, with which to paint
and never,
fade away.
-----------------------------------------
This is my stay
My glorious garden, my bridge,
My gateway
Into possibilities scarcely heard,
Fair whispers and inclinations
Where new music can be made,
With purple compliments
Providing shade,
Beneath which
Rich ideas have no graves,
Only wellsprings and matinees
Inking inspiration,
It is here I would eat, sleep,
Or pray,
Yes,
This is my stay.
--------------------------------------------
Where time knows no days
And worries have no prey
Where, upon parsons picnic blankets
Are served, golden words,
Which only ever convey
A never-ending display
Of heavenly ballets
And opportunities
To say,
Anything you wish
Poetry, book, or play
For,
Within the imagination
Inspiration,
Never, disobeys
Yes,
This,
Is my stay...

Late to the party. I arrive to applaud.
Mind open head bowed I am humbly awed
No detours no phrases to lead me astray
leaving only the images in what you say

it is for all of us to chase the parsons picnic blanket.

thank you
Tony

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,

Long time no see.  We have gotten settled in our new home, and Linda has quickly mastered the technicalities of her new working life.  With that said, she now is able to give me a little time for Cosmo.  This amazing poem has inspired me to write a facsimile of my own.  I'm calling it "Sequestered In Serenity", all my thoughts brought on by your brilliant write.  It is wonderful to reconnect with you.

Love ya, Bro,
Larry xxx

I was carried off on a magical carpet ride, by your imagination!  To a place, that once you get there, you never want to leave.

"This is my stay"  
makes me think that you're saying;  THIS IS WHERE I WANT TO BE-  CALGON, TAKE ME AWAY! Loved the creative flow, the imagery and the whole mind journey.
