The bliss of a Summer Night's Kiss |

I come alive beneath crescent moon smiling in the eve of a cool summer’s night walking the road alone with only the moon and me and the beauty of the hills for company Mother Moon she sings to me her aria of the shades of slumber and dreams blanketing the blue hued lands with her velvet smooth melody a lullaby of enchantment beckoning me follow ‘tis magic which flows from the heavens as divine nectar an elixir of celestial bliss intoxicating in its sustenance flooding my veins so that I feel drunken upon its essence heady with its kiss I find myself dancing feet weaving steps of delight and felicity bewitched by the night sprites and the music of the moon as I travel the road leading to my room where sweet slumber awaits s.a.t. Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

Thanks P.S. and JL. It's amazing what being in the country will do to a person's soul. Truly, I found myself dancing down the road to the music of the moonlight. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

So, this is what it felt like? (Checking his pockets for enough money to fly west) Well, maybe next year or the year after. Such a feeling your inspiration covered you with. And you wrote of it very well. |

Susan Such walks are possible even in the middle of the city...it just takes a country kind of mind. I loved this! |

Barry - yes, you should come west and see what beauty is held in the magic of these mountains. Truly treasure is held here. And the variations of landscape are breathtaking. Thank you for your kindness. Paul, thank you for your kind reply as well. I appreciate it. Martie, yes sometimes it is possible. Somehow, though, when held in the arms of mother nature, I feel the most at home. Thanks. Hugs to you all -- Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
