Because You Have Faith In You Poem by RIC BASTASA

because you do not understand it completely

you let it mesmerize
you,

logic sits upon a rock under a tree
then sleeps
so soundly

as imagination spreads its wings and then flaps it
soaring in the sky

like the kite when you were once a child
like the jet plane when you left your beloved in preference of latitude

like a cloud that hovers upon a hill and rests there like a vagabond
with no home yet in mind

you set aside the need for understanding
you are happy and singing and wandering
you have no direction
yet you are so full like a river bringing so many memories to the

sea
