Sunlight filters through the trees
the wind whispers on the breeze.
Through yon mountains blinding haze
my mind drifts off     in dreamy daze.
The breeze gently strokes my face
I'm held in tranquil of  this place.

Escaping into far off dreams
of forests green and blue streams,
rolling rivers flow through grassy hills
sights and sounds   the whiporwill.
Rainbows arching in the sky
life complete, a natural high.



somebody tell me, please help me....
understand.......(as sung by Trace Adkins)

Yep, those natural highs are the best! They go way beyond coffee, but I guess coffee gets my eyes open so I can see them.

Enjoyed this.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Well I just checked with my travel agent and she said this vacation package is no longer offered.
So your words will at least help me relax with wonderful thoughts

Donna,
Words so true, that are so full of wisdom.  If ones stops to smell the roses they sense this natural high.  The beauty of nature can not be done just by just word, but WOW  you sure succeeded to do so.
Take care,
Coway

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy
