There's a Place

There's a place a place I so long to go distanced from the distractions of the day tilted and tucked away far from the promised road of yesterday's dream Where the yellow fragrant flowers only speak of love each lucent petal pulling at a piece of my heart and the gentle breezes holding me ever close There's a place a place I so long to be where green spacious mountains sing out towards the heavens where abundant butterflies float oh so gallantly along crystal clear rivers and with my thoughts run fast and free Oh leave that primrose path and with the wind come along embrace unknown possibilities push past predictability and live life with a visibility at a pace that is meant to last

This reminds me of that song "A Place for Us" or maybe it was a time for us? I think it was in the movie west side Story. WE all need this place, Tim. Nicely portrayed.

Your dreaming of my dream and all the reasons that Henry Thoreau is one of my heroes. I loved frolicking thru Eden via your lovely poem ... CayCay
