A Ticket To Ride

Robert Rittel

Faith is the substance in things hoped for evidence not seen,
science that is magic and works by its own keen.
Wherein at ease it takes one to wondering beyond,
almighty sensitive humor in believing fond.
Laws of living nature fit all to recycle every mood,
filling every curiosity and answers to amazements glued.
Wisdom from many lives delighted to prolong,
souls that hear the echoes through the crystal stone.
Dancing lights in their constant feast to be in joy alive,
intellectual throne and mystic seat to survive.
The abysmal deeps of individual personality,
will fail and perish with sore despair utterly.
The rational airy mind in confusion wrought,
and ticket to ride in the kingdom of thought.
Stardust by joy attracted and just dance,
hollow orb of sphere and fixed circumstance.
