Oh Spirit

Oh Spirit

A Poem by Arthur Weil

Come, spirit, entice and dance with me

Let me embrace, be embraced by your look

And share your untold tales

Of seduction, conquest and decapitation,

For in your glitzy world

Shadows, bad omens

And eeriness all protrude

 

Oh, spirits, dance with me

A dance of hope and valor

Electrifying, gyrating, smooth of step

Into a lost world full of secrets

Oh yes, tease me, please me to the heights of ecstasy

Wild cravings now satisfied

Like a splendid feast to be digested

 

Come, spirits, for a moment let me forget

My compatriots, my world of undertows

Instead, expand the world of wonder

Mix the colors so that I may be inebriated

Yet I have not drunk; show me the bright path

With ease, like magic, an inner eerie world

Of souls so magnificent and spirits to lift me up

 

For I, too, love life and all its values

And, as I float upon the placid waves of wonderment

Let me land on safe shores and be welcomed

In spirit and in body with cool calmness,

Contemplative

Wondrous, joyous, amorous

Searching for the diamond of peace within
