Sacred Serenity Sweet moonlight, kissing cool waters, As the lake lazily twiddles its thumbs. Starry skies match starry eyes; I am dreamily delighted by serenity surrounding me. Little creatures skitter cautiously Through overgrown undergrowth behind me. A candy coated breeze Giggles amongst the daisies in the grass, And little, naughty dandelions, Blow fluffy seeds into my eyes. This is my sacred place, and my sacred time. A vision in my mind. |

Whereas James feels cold and desolate, I come away feeling warm and wearing a smile. Even if it's only a place in thought, it sounds delightful. I especially like: "giggles amongst the daisies in the grass." ...Give me the strength to walk the soft earth, a relative to all that is.... Black Eagle Oglala Sioux holy man |

I wish I could find this place...it's a place I've been looking for for a long time. It sounds great. My favorite line was how the lake twiddles its thumbs... |

Yu Lan beautifully written, lovely feelings. why must we pray screaming? why must not death be redefined? we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass-patti smith |
