Ghost Wagon
Ghost Wagon
You ‘see’ it don’t you?
I mean really ‘see’
it is anything but ‘hollow.’
At night—it is then you can
see it and them—
Yes them…
When the stars light the sky,
the canopy covers the wagon.
A team of galloping stallions
begins shuffling its hooves.
Inside…there they are
artists in their own right
poets at play, and a choir
of heavenly hosts.
Paints of endless colors begin to blend—
words flow from a pencil’s lead
and the singing is soft almost silent
as ghosts go traveling to ‘bedrooms’
where dreamers sleep unknown.
The haunting—
sweet mystery
send messages to the slumberer’s
night…
visions, illuminations, transfigured
awaiting a sign.
Yet, no sign need come
nor message be
had.
BUT—if one
discovered…
a treasure at last.
So…
sleep peacefully
tonight and, if you
hear the sound of
hoof beats, close your
eyes…quickly~~~FAST.
