Only There

Only There I feel the thunder
Calming Seas amongst the wonder

Only There on that horizon I see
Purpose in it all. A destination to be

Only There in the deep recesses of the mind
Feelings so pleasant and sublime

Only There mingling among the Spirits of Nature
Humbling down all of One's stature

Only There Madre Terre so beckons to see
In such freedom and raw intensity

Only there to be so calm. So serene.
The most beautiful vision I've ever seen

Only There to "see" where I often go
Anything Madre Terre wants to show

Note: Madre Terre = Mother Earth or Mother Nature
