In forest green

Folder: 
book 15

I do walk

     in the forest green

upon the soft paths

     beneath towering trees

 

 

colorful birds

     around me sing

and rich full scents

     float upon the breeze

 

and at my side

     they do walk

our love is full

     and rich our dreams

 

and life is just

     like a perfect dream

exactly how

     I would have it be

 

and I do now

     shake my head

with rueful smile

     cease my daydream

 

the world I build

     within my mind

of castles white

     and damsels fair

 

like cotton candy

     of sugar spun

has no substance

     and will never be

 

for I do walk

     in landscape bare

and only dust

     is upon the breeze

 

no castle does

     lie upon this path

and no maiden fair

     does wait for me

 

my daydreams but

     are a fantasy

building disappointment

     that does await me

 

yet I would still

     this world escape

if there was some how

     to live with in my dreams
