Only Passing Strange

In the quietness of the night,

Strange imaginings are given flight.

Anything within the range,

Prohibit none for passing strange.

Conducting music in your head

Or making song sheets burn instead.

Silence getting wet in rain,

Bring it back to dry again.

Watching sins grow slowly dark.

Seeing flowers make a spark.

Make the time forget itself,

Then place it on a darkened shelf.

Unbursting soapy bubbles as they fly

Or slowing down a morning sky.

Smashing nice ideas apart,

Then mending them within your heart.

Scolding symptoms as they part.

Saying all is really art.

Reading poems in a cloud.

Making words self-define aloud.

A leaf burnt through by the sun.

All epiphanies undone.

A gentle breeze that moves a stone.

Making boulders float alone.

No need your thoughts to rearrange,

All is only passing strange.
