Night Vision

Under the bedclothes with my torch
I live in a land of dream,
where a forest grows with curly trees
and a canyon runs between

My light shines out, just like the sun,
allowing me to see,
two mountains rising in the air
as lovely as can be.

Descending down the canyon walls
all moist with steamy heat
my mind and body nearly stall
my heart pounds out it’s beat.

This place I’ve travelled many times
and every time renew
my passion for this lovely land
with such a heavenly view.

When daylight comes I know I’ll try
to share this lands deep wealth,
but now my batteries have run dry
so I’ll go to sleep myself!
