Chasing Visions Poem by Stormy Day

Catching glimpse of glory's face
Across room, around corner or bend
Heart leaps, begins to race
And from body and soul it is rend

Without afore-thought to reason
Vessel and escence give chase
After such light of moon or sun
That dazzles even the stars in their infinite space

But ereathral-glow slips from desperate grasp
For every cry and suffered pain
Ever looser is mortal's tightening clasp
Over fading shadow and is all in vain
