Out where the wind blows its lonely song across the land,
I see all the beauty shaped through time by a much stronger hand.
This place in time I wish I could take away today with me,
And place it on display for all the world to hear and see.
A mountain dominates this scene and fills my heart with love.
One that is so majestic it reaches to the clouded sky above.
Trees so tall sweet, birds to hear and exciting places to explore.
There is no more peaceful place, I could not ask for more.
Just to see the waterfall splashing to the ground so far below,
And all the flowers growing wild in a place I’ve got to know.
Where no foreign sounds assault me nor air that isn’t clean.
In my mind a picture of this calming place I have often seen.
Sun dappled days and darkened nights with star filled skies,
Seem to mesmerize my mind and fill my awestruck eyes.
This place of such wonder where I sit upon the ground,
No other can compare with this special place I’ve found.
I never want to leave but reality softly calls my mind away,
From this dreamlike place of beauty that I have found today.
To return, I only have to close my eyes and I can clearly see,
This glorious place in time where I wish I could always be.
