My Mind

 

There is a place--sweet calm serene,

It greets me in a crystal stream.

Water vapors in the air-

create the rainbows as I stare.

My mind pictures this scene for me--

when reality needs some fantasy!!

As I drink the painting in--

my soul's refreshed, the world can't win.

For, I'm the maker of my bliss-

misty moonlight--midnight kiss.

I walk the beaches of all time-

creating hope in the sublime.

Smell the grasses as they wave-

visit loved one's in their grave.

Once again, my mind reveals--

my happiness comes--for none to steal.
