Phillip dancing slightly

Willow creek crossing
Insures safe passage
For the young brides of Samara,
Wandering forward.
Infantry men gaze upon
The light souls of the young brides,
Seeking the river
Winding a pathway
To rome.

Passing from junction to junction
Becomes a thin line,
As time levels off.
The brides become weary
And seek a town closer,
A younger, wiser destination.

Wagons harnessed to donkeys
Arrive in the town,
Colorado Springs,
Bringing bride after bride,
To an early destination,
Where a cowboy slowly sings.

Young brides being scared,
Ask questions of the man,
Who he is, and
Where he comes from,
But he turns their attention
To a man, who lives upon a table.

Who is he, the brides wonder,
Yearning to reveal his name,
But he burns oils of midnight,
And keeps to himself.

It's merely Phillip.
He's slightly dancing
To a tune from Muriano,
Played upon the notes
Of a cornet in the hands
Of a wild magician,
Building an ocean
Out of musical
Wonders.
