In The Midst Of Nowhere

Here in the midst of nowhere

In the embrace of the trees

Thick grass grows in the shallow banks

As the stream gurgles, quite at ease.



So am I, at ease and  free,

Happily gurgling too

Revelling in this time alone-

And unlike the sky, I’m not blue.



My thoughts are clear, on my back,

Toes dancing in the water.

This is my milieu, one and all.

There’s no doubt I’m Nature’s daughter.



Tomorrow comes soon enough

Truly, all too soon I’d say

So I’d best get back to this work,

After all, relaxing’s not play.



Here in the midst of nowhere

In the embrace of the trees

Thick grass grows in the shallow banks

As the stream gurgles, quite at ease.
