A far, far away land

Another poem that I wrote two years ago, during my time of wonders.
................................................................................

When the years roll by like the stars,
The ground is darkened by passing clouds
In this aerial peacefulness, winds blow forevermore
Earthly eyes are very few, long to come
The calmness makes one want to cry.
It's such that even the barren soil
Is full of ancient wonders---
The clouds can be heard rolling past
One feels as young as the ocean waters
Yet as old as the stars that shine brightly.
It's a lonely world but a happy one
Lie on the grass and you can sleep---
There's no sorrow in laughing or crying
Nor is there the sadness in happiness,
For the seraphim are your best friends.
This is a land of God I've often dreamed about!
The ethereal love is divine from one so high,
It is unimaginable yet imaginable,
It is unwritable yet writable.
So sovereign is this world it's distant
Yet so close when felt in the heart.
The days of renown old.
I still wonder.

'Twould indeed be nice to have such dreams. I will leave them to you as my reality is both and nightmare and, currently, dream enough.

This is a well-written poem, great for a peaceful dream, if that is what it might be.
