In ancient forest
on distant shore,
I found the Land
of Forevermore.

Rainbows arched
blue skies by day.
At night stars shone
past Milky Way.

All life was Light
in vibrant hues.
Into all things,
this Light infused.

Where everyone,
from muse to sage,
enjoyed sweet youth
and did not age.

Maidens rode
white unicorns,
among red roses
that beared not thorns.

The elves and fairies,
gnomes and sprites,
would trill and traipse
throughout the nights.

Fresh floral scents
filled morning air.
Petals, garlands,
strewn everywhere.

The haunting sounds
of wood Pan flutes,
harmonized with
fine stringed lutes.

Sweet laughter rang
through glen and derry,
in land of mirth
where all made merry.

In ancient forest,
on distant shore,
I found the Land
of Forevermore.

(smiles) Yay! Oh Linda, I so often have dreams of such gorgeous places like this, with unicorns going down Jolly Rancher rainbows and faeries and mermaids and children with colorful costumes on dancing to tropical music and oceans foaming like bubble baths! (kiss on cheek) Your fantasies bring smiles to all our faces, sweet friend, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Earth Angel,
I'm begining to think there is more than one of these places. It's either that or many entrances. Loved your write.

It is a beautiful place, Linda. Thank you for bringing us there with your poem, and for bringing dreams of what will someday really be!

Yes, there are more of these Shangri-Las. I personally know of four of them!--and there are several portals to each one!

Keep an open mind and heart and I could open many worlds for you, Dear One!

If you don't know how to astral travel, I could show you how!--then you could join me in my nightly journeys! Actually, I prefer travelling in the higher planes but that may be too difficult for a beginner flyer! The astral level can be a bit scary at times, but I'll protect you! I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of Gary's wrath if anything were to happen to his precious red rose! lol

Hi, there! Welcome to Passions!

I suppose my poetry is "rhythmic" due to my musical background. I've got the music in me!--and it flows (hopefully!) into my writing!

I will most definitely take you there! Fluff your wings, dear Angel With The Blue Eyes!
The planets will be in perfect alignment this summer's night.

Crystal, you will shine even more brightly there than you do on the Earthly realm!

I hope you are not afraid of heights or wide open spaces!

Acrophobia and agoraphobia would cause you to be in a considerable state of discomfiture if you were to fly with me.

--No matter, even if you suffered from these conditions, I could cure you of them and you would be able to travel the galaxies with me!

Tonight's the night! I'll come for you when you are sleeping...

Don't have any alcohol before retiring! It would not be safe if you were to drink and fly! lol

See you in mid of night!

Since you are a goddess, you truly do know where to go to find these places of enchantment. It is just that this Earthly experience has dulled your memory!

I'd love for you to join me and our fellow Pipsters for a night of joyful bliss in Shangri-La-La Land!

Travel lightly!

an appointment
was kept
as i laid ther
thoughts in awe
dreams came to be
the angel in you
arrived
flying high
through the breeze
while in deep
of sleep
places shown me
always to keep
upon the way
to shores
forevermore
