magic

i used to know the light
and its magic when the solitude took flight
alone in dreams, observing from on high
as a soothing sun would paint the forlorn sky
this was the time of castles in the air
and waking to the nightingales in prayer
of boats that rocked so gently upon the clearest seas
horizons were so distant they could never feel the breeze
now here, the memories of those days are souls to know
still illuminated, but now by this unfaltering celestial glow
where tides are ripples in eternal peace
whose influence washes over hearts, to never cease
i used to know the light
and its magic; hopefully you might
