Sea of Green

I run through the fields of green
Feel the wind upon my back
Open grass sways beneath my feet
Looking for the freedom I seek

A smile forms upon rosy lips
As eyes drift toward open skies
Clouds encased with silver lining
As the heaven's above appear shining

The sun roams across the open sky
As shadows dance within my view
Floating like a butterfly in a sea of green
I walk across this field of dreams.
