A Girl Dreaming of Nature


Oh, moaning forest and plants comely,
Birdies all murmuring a sweet chorus;
Trees high above create a ceiling,
      The wind whispering and weeping wildly.
And in my dream, I am dreaming,
I am lost in a tangled green forest;
And in the green, I am me, me only. 

Oh, blazing colors of delight,
Fragmenting images so hypnotic;
This fantasy haven sumptuous,
      A night quite bright with wild sights.
I stroll about presumptuous,
And I am ethereal, exotic;
I love this dream, dreading daylight.

Oh, little sea horse with wings,
You really belong in water drifting;
But like a hummingbird you drink flowers;
      I stand still staring at shimmering things.
I am caressed by soft rain showers,
And my imagination comes floating;
Then sweetly, joyfully, my heart sings.

Oh, moaning forest and plants comely,
Birdies all murmuring a sweet chorus;
Trees high above create a ceiling,
      The wind whispering and weeping wildly.
And in my dream, I am dreaming,
I am lost in a tangled green forest;
And in the green I am me, me only.

What a sweet fantasy. The little seahorse with wings is wonderful. I love anything with wings and in my collages I have winged women all the time. Hugs SuZ
