A Place Where I Can Be Free

(Baring my soul)

Running uninhibited
Through the jungle like recesses of my mind;
To the special places where I can unwind…
Having not a worry of the things, 
Which I have so willingly left behind

I leap into the air with the greatest of ease, 
To glide upon a warm summer’s breeze
I worry not for what lies within the trees, 
I gracefully pirouette in the air landing ever so gently 
Within the green-blue sea
  
I swim for miles until I return to dry land, 
The nature child in me rests on the coolness of the white sands.
Basked in the warmth of the sun, whilst sipping 
On a perfectly chilled glass of iced tea ~
Serenely shaded by a palm tree 
Where the warm breeze sways the leaves
Providing a genteel fan… 

All my cares of this world 
I have placed in The Most Capable Hands, 
That shall continually protect me 
From harmful elements of nature and man
Alas, dear hearts I am free.
