Mind Travel
Mind travel
Are you willing to travel further than the end of your seat?
Then let us begin our journey into the unknown parts of your mind that words
can repeat
I give to you a pebble to make it real for when you wake it will be in your hand
to make this journey complete
You are on a hillside in a place where you have never been before but familiarity
is in the mind to meet
You see long flowing grass and butterflies of all colours reflecting a rainbow in
your blue eyes and a field of strawberries you can eat
Realise that this place is for you and forever you can come here to walk
peacefully without the worries of normality of dullness and defeat
A windmill so large its sails are as big as a street
A robin red breast sits on your shoulder while you eat bread together on a
bench whilst watching a monkey play the drums to a beat
Subtle colours become so bright your eyes are compelled to take them in as if
to first greet
Is this the real life I want instead of living in a dimension meant for scholars
who happily walk a road made of tar and concrete?
I can walk on rubber sausages in my slippers over mountains and collect some
bananas from South America and go to the corner shop for some custard and
sweets
I have shown you the door now all you need to do is relax on a white billowy
cloud and rest your feet
Look and open your hand and you can still see the pebble but you must believe
in your mind what is right and always listen to your heart because your soul is
flying fleet
