Wanting I want to sit where I can dream. Perhaps beside a lazy stream, That chuckles as it glides along And sings a throaty, water song. I want to walk where shadows play Across the path, then slip away. Where every whim of breeze and tree, Commands the leaves to speak to me. I want to sleep beyond the dune, Where all night long, the ocean's tune Does whisper on the beach below And lulls me with it's ebb and flow. I want to live where I can be A part of nature's symphony. Where I can savor every sound And wonder, of the world around! Betty Lou Hebert Published by Poetry Press 1989 [This message has been edited by Trillium (edited 07-03-2001).] |

So Lovely! I have all the same dreams. Thank you for the peaceful feeling and the tranquil simplicity and reminder that nature can always sooth a troubled soul..Ellie A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |
