Transcendental Sonnet #871:
The Portal

Deeply flawed and profoundly mortal
Nonetheless I have found a portal
Which opens to immortality
Through which I transcend all time and space
As I contemplate the lovely face
Of she whom I love and who loves me

I am able to taste of magic
Able to fly on gossamer wings
I am able to leave the tragic
Behind and ascend to higher things

All I have to do is dream of her
To find myself on the other side
With all of my joys which never were
Where I soar with my butterfly bride
