Fragments of Hope

in the spaces between dreams and reality
i find the lustful moon
under the tree of life
melting into her beauty as the earth moves

i bask in the spirit
of the moment
savouring the dream
in the first light of dawn

i devour the endless gift
of desire
as fortune
dances in the background

i create the future
with the divine fragments of hope
opening the mind of time
in the scented temple of ambition
