Constance La France Poet Verse

''A Place Infinite''

and in my dream 
I find myself in a bizarre, foreign place
a place of infinite shades of green
     veiled in haze-
and I, a striking, ravishing exotic being-

          enchanting strange butterflies and birds drift, and
I am lost in a sea of lush, dripping foliage, where
   daggers of heat pierce my skin-
               I belong in this steamy, tropical forest
in this deep-colored and green stained exotic land,
                 yes, I do . . .
 
  far-off and distant, where all is enticing
         and mysterious wildflowers grow-
     and above the tree canopy
           there is a dazzling jet blue sky
where hidden-   birds sing melodic songs for me . . . 

oh, there is a hypnotic peace, where all is 
untamed and apart
               and all I need do is . . .  
                                             close my eyes
