This is a dreamy one Kate. The imagery and metaphor is vividly ensconced in my mind...and how interesting from comments that none of us think exacgtly alike despite the love for words. I and see you or even myself in this scene...looking out an open window....with the breezerustling the sheer drapery as you write...I can almost see what is beyond and why your mind woud wander past those confines to what is visible and what is invisible. Truly the vision is huge Kate. I'm enormously filled with thought after reading several times. This one has absolutely dug into my soul,ignited my mind and released emotions I try to hide.
So beautiful Kate...and a pleasure to have a moment to read you again.
Love,
Taylor

Dear Kate,
I say take the open window. One of the lessons of this life is learning how to let go.

"...Futile to think that I can live here, kept
within inelastic walls that know nothing
of the seas and paths mind travels..."
Sweet Kate, I love this one. It has an openess that insists we read between the lines for the authours true feelings.The meanings flitter just on the edge of understanding... is the subject sad, regretful, angry, dejected or a combination of all with just a pinch of hope thrown in. You are becomint the mistress of the sublime and subtle romance poetry. Well done my sweet lady.

An open window or door is a path that beckons if we just listen. Positive steps can always be a factor with dreaming. It is our choice to make. You remind us with poise and wisdom Kate. I love the ease with which you pen your words.

"Inelastic walls" I believe are the bane of all creative thinking. If we cannot stay fluid, and ever moving forward, in our minds, and our expressions, we will dry up like old corn stalks.
KB, you see through a lens that allows dreams to become realities, and allows the river to flow without impediment.
This was, to me, a song to creative thinking from one who is grounded but still free to explore those vast realms across the ether.
We can expand our minds but yet they are contained within a bony skull.

indeed..it is futile to think THAT when in fact your soul soars beyond this reality and nestles easily in other spheres other dimensions breathing the reality that is devoid of illusion..
This is superb Kate..

The life of Pan is not about closed rooms and stifling rules and moralistic claptrap, no indeed, the life of Pan is about loving . . . and leaving . . . but lovimg, nonetheless. Gotta love it. Hah! Aberjhani said the same thing, but eloqently, he's like that.
Such power of thought to fly through that window and be free! But to what? I had to ask since I see the open world as one being mangled and strangled with the amount of confusion and dis-satifaction that prevails over a populace still too blind to see it. I would so love to go through that portal to freedom too, but it isn't found in this world Kate! Fantastic poems illicit reaction;-)! Eileen
This LIFE OF PAN reads to me like a soft nova of the soul exploding beautifully beyond the limitations of an earthbound self to embrace realities and possibilities empowered by spiritualized consciousness. The quiet wonder and contemplative power of the write is tremendously moving, lifting one up for a mesmerizing ride on waves of light and silk. With much gratitude--

You venture into the metaphysical world, where all is energy, vibrating at incredible speed and velocity, and invisible to the human eye..
In that Energy Field, exists the Mind of God..
Quite superb and evolving pen
