The Land of Wander

How sweet it is to heed
For a gentle wave and nod
A seemingly soul of blend
A man of likely land of nod

How serendipitous it might
For her to be your significant
Like a lady magistrate
Who lays down the law and rule

Sigh…how I wish I could be her
But to remain a dreamer 
Is like keeping a treasure 
Alas, can’t fool any cavalier

In a bit of meliorating manner
Redeeming is like a rapture
Like wandering with full of pleasure
In the East of Eden - land of wander
