In the tree filtered light of a forest surround
where the breezes soft whisper their natural song
one can steal away to a paradise found
to reveal its' delights as the seconds grow long.

What unfolds is the fabric of time in this place
in the golden lit scenes you've been offered to view.
What you've stole is the key to unwind at a pace
and behold all you see breathe new life into you.

As the sights and the sounds grow perceptively clear
an enlightenment visited squarely on you
that there might come a time you can no longer hear
or delight in such things, though we doubt this is true.

Where a chorus of light and a forest of sound
has concealed in plain sight times of peace to be found.

I wish my three syllable rhythms flowed like this beauty.  Nicely done.

The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

kayjay,
Thanks for both the read and edit. I've always thought "stold" should be a word, but,
then again, I guess the english language is enough of a mess without my input.

Midnitesun,
Thanks. The catharsis found in writing of such things allows me more time to be away from them. A paradox, as I would much rather be there.

Sy,
Thanks, just a little visit to the last time I sat on a log or a rock, completely lost in my favorite environs.
