Somewhere, in my mind

There is a place where life is kind

It is my favourite place to be

For I think it’s where I feel most free

 

In my minds eye, birds fly

High

The sky is blue

And the people few

 

Flowers bloom

In the mountain dew

Lakes and waterfalls

Erase my thoughts of gloom

 

Daisies tickle at my toes

Scent of mimosa

Assaults my nose

And the only pricks

Are attached to the wild rose

 

This is my place

My sacred space

Here I can let go

Of my resting bitch face

 

My escape from the rat race

Solitude and calm

Nature is my friend

She asks of nothing

But respect

She has no agenda

No reason to pretend

 

So if you happen to be looking

And you ever wonder where I am

Know this ...

I am circumspect in your interest

I’m not ready to invest.
