Wander To Wonders

Thauma

A world of wonder
where all steps lead,
never a place of place,
but a gorgeous geography
of blazing amazement
ever out of reach.

Wander to wonder, walk
the path to the impossible,
traverse the terra incognito
of every single every day,
eager for epiphanies.

Live within the mundane,
but perceive the miracles,
surreal and sublime,
permeating the path.

Notice the numinous,
beckoning mirages,
not to be followed,

follow them anyway.

Wander to wonders
and capture meaning.

Then nod and note,
pause and take stock,
remembering the seen,
shimmering marvels
spread along the way.
