My Happy Place

When I close my eyes
This world melts away
Revealing to my surprise
The world I left astray
A low lit room
Watching a stage
A rocking tune
And comedic craze
The smell of cuisine
Italian of the sort
Croissants in between
This I report
Cool, crisp air
Pure to my skin
It is my happy place
I want to come again

This poem, I found really inspiring! I honestly don't like to comment on anybody's work because all poetry is usually the same, on love, death, etc etc, even mine sometimes, but I try to be different, your poem made me feel like I need to find a place like this! Thanx....Copeland
