And all the Gods in the universe agree, Fly me to the Moon River, I take the night train to the, illuminate me, Sun-rise-Sun-set
The below was received from the aether and beamed by sonmi from upon the Cloud a year ago. Tis a small offering that few have seen, that she tucked away, but is now being taken out, shaken, and aired across the skies again.
Reflection finds the piece stands fast for her. – The Cloud
Light.
The light sears across my irises,
Rippling through my mind,
Roller-coasting the landscape of my being.
It’s departure bequeaths
An imprint of its association
Comparable to the permanence
Of a hard-fought for battle scar.
It remains with me forever more,
Yet I sorely grieve it’s loss,
And still hold dear the pleasurable rays
Gleaned from its bright dawn.
Now. Let me take you on a trip – at the speed of light – and you won’t have to move – just sit there, and ride;
Esme's Cloud 
“Comparable to the permanence
Of a hard-fought for battle scar.”
Love it, Sonmi. All of it.
Like the book you just read, I read this three times too.

Oh Peter thank you for those words. You’ve made what has been a dark day much brighter for telling me that.

A lovely poem, for which many thanks. I have read it five times no less. I must confess to cheating with the video though; there seemed to be long passages with not much happening despite the alleged great speed. Perhaps I should stick to day trips to the seaside. Besides, I hear the Fish & Chips on Andromeda are crap.

Thank you H, I like the poem very much, such that it is, and all the more-so for it standing strong twelve months on, so I’m really pleased you like it too.
The film…it was partly an exercise in patience, to see if anyone had that much, or would not be able to help themselves by clicking forwards, which is exactly what I myself did the first time I watched it because I wanted to see that which was coming so much, so – you are in good company. I find it interesting that a journey at light speed would seem so slow to us, however I’m certain it would be thrilling to be in an actual craft zipping through the stars, rather than watching it on a computer monitor.

If I might add; To watch this clip in its time and duration would take the help of a certain smoke–of which I’ve not indulged for quite the many decades, and so I too am guilty of skipping large, very large, parts.

I’ve been expanded by the meditation in this video. Quite…realigning. And there’s something about this poem you’ve safeguarded and supported that engenders repeat readings. I see I’m not the only one to surpass a third or fifth pass of eyes over words, in one sitting!
Full.

How kind of you to say so NB smiles I’m pleased you like it as much as my other followers seem to – I too found the meditation angle prevalent in the video, on second and subsequent replays – to drift and focus at the same time across the stars is a fine thing indeed.
