Flight and Fancy

I sailed my ship 
through time gone by 
and never found 
the start 

I sailed my ship 
through days to come 
and never reached 
the end 

My trip was short 
through both extremes 
it took me 
just a second 

My ship defied 
the laws of physics 
its speed 
exceeded light 

I reached out 
through expanse of space 
and sought 
it's never ending 

But as I reached 
it moved away 
and eluded 
my seeking grasp 

My ship   my mind 
was fleet and agile 
in its flight 
through the infinite all 

It looked and it saw 
it sought and it found 
no limits 
no confines
no bounds
