a Walk in-
the woods with debussy's
prelude to the afternoon
in my ears
time stands still
the warmth of the sun
music echoing amongst trees
the chant
of songbirds
oh peace and tranquility embrace
the benedictine monks
of santa domingo
a single melodic note
sung in unison
I listen to the ocean surf
the wild
cascading
waves
sweeping
me away
in the voice of nature
time
stands
still
meditation with bach and beethoven
mozart's concerto shuman's fantasy
the piano enchants me
the violins take me away
I am oneness with earth
trees that touch the sky bring
serenity
tranquility
time stands still
morning elegance
storms and wind and soft rain
hidden mountain retreats
enchanted meadows swaying
wild thunder songbird serenades
nightfall's cloak wolves calling
hidden coves and woodland ferns
moss clinging and wild flowers growing
in meadows
blowing hair
picker of buttercups
daisies
dandelions
life is chaotic and confusing
I find the serene and peaceful
amongst ponds and streams
listening to classical music
oh listen to the loons
