Un-Word-Like

The gramatical weed is redefined;
just leave the gate swinging and bound outward,
drinking the dizzy nectar that unchains
rich pastures of creative spirit,
freedom is implicit.

Maybe you just missed it, the gate that is
a great wide portal; round they loop
passing, passing and not seeing it,
open, always open the gate, swinging
a seeming chasm for small fingers.

I found it just by stopping.
wondering why
that part of the landscape was missing.
