Golden sunlight flickers
on the leaves.
Orange path that leads me....
Where
The river bends
to meet the trees
Somewhere off in the distance.
...
I hurry to find a field
that awaits me
with open arms.
Flowers to embrace me
A mountain side to protect me
and shield me from all harm.
Back along the lane I travel
Hurry home to rest and smile
Wile away the evening hours
Beneath a starry sky.
I sleep and dream of somewhere past
A life so simple, days that last
Memories or dreams of peace
Stay with me always
Mine to keep
Forever.
