Please take my hand
Let’s run away
Promise to not let go
A faraway land
Just you and me
It’s where the flowers glow

A land once forgotten
Surrounded by life
You can sleep out under the moon
And watch the stars
Fall through the sky
And awake to the afternoon

Over and under
The pixies dance
In and about the tree’s
The golden leaves
Float brilliantly
Up and down with ease

The rhinestone sun
Looks down upon
This land, this paradise
It’s where we’ll live
Peacefully
Underneath the bright blue sky



Better to die, and sleep
The never-waking sleep, than linger on
And dare to live when the souls life is gone.

Underneath the bright blue sky


You penned a beautiful dream.

Love,
