The Boy

I ran through the trees

As free as the wind

On a golden day

On a golden breeze

 

Trees,

Whispered and sighed

I spoke to them all

The chestnut

The yew

The tall

The small

 

I ran along galleries

Touched tapestries

Connected to the stone

Took the great winding stair

And imagined everywhere

 

Days passed by

Everything to explore

Amongst trees

Amongst galleries

Everything to find

And more

 

A door that I found

A bronze arrow

Fixed in its’ centre

To touch

To open

Everything to find

And more
