Poetry: Discovery

by Liam

While gazing out across yonder sea,

Cerulean, the sky, but deep within me.

A seagull cries, and in my mind,

A distant question is what I find.

That beady eye, as if it had known,

My thoughts benign had moved and grown.

Upon those wings which soared up high,

To see the new, to touch this phantasmagorical view.

The reason, the meaning, I wondered why?

“A sea, a life, and a deep blue sky,”

Embedded therein, the mind blissed me,

What was aware? Why at one with thee?

A vista new is born within our sight,

We touch, we integrate the clouds, the light.

Within this panorama is a palace, free,

Expand the idea, understanding your, me.

An infinitesimal seed,

A macroscopic jump,

A consciousness need,

An unconscious bump.

Who then is this I?

Who then is this me?

What then is the self, if set free?

My name, it fades, and with it, identity too.

The grasping need of having, too.

To possess, to own, or to dictate.

But wait, wait, wait.

Let’s pause again to ponder and enumerate,

To recall all as this dictate reiterates.

That beauty, joy, and freedom abound,

It’s in my mind where this is found.
