A Magical Journey
With a magical wand in my right hand
I order nature to gift me with wings
Not as Icarus near the sun to land,
But across clouds my journey to begin:
A lonely magical journey to eye
The charm of nature from above the sky.
Emboldened with supple feathery wings
I head on a unique journey of dream
Flying freely as a bird without strings
To scan with fresh eyes a beloved realm:
A stunning piece of land that shines with sparks
When seen from the sparkling eyes of a lark.
Winding my way through the web of white clouds
A land of wonder relishes my eyes
Of which with no doubt I can but be proud
Without a single stroke of sneaky sigh:
It is the sight of a small gem of land
Surrounded by shining sea and white sand.
It`s a journey of wonder and magic
As I can admire fast flowing rivers,
Bordered with tall trees that are majestic,
Snaking to the sea, shining as silver
With crystal clear waters that are so bright
That they fill my heart with airs of delight.
The magical journey of dream reveals
A mountain top in the shape of three breasts,
A sacred lake that giant trees conceal,
A verdant forest that furtively rests
Amidst greenery of sugar cane fields
Stretching to the very verge of low hills.
The low bird-like flight brings to the fore light
The peak of a mountain with the thumb up
And close by another peak greets the sight*
With a sublime angel seated straight up
Guarding the entrance of the town-city
Basking freely in peace and harmony.
