Lost In A Meadow...


The days of lying in a meadow.
Overwhelmed by springs smells,
And just a simple but powerful sense of peace.
Butterflies, Dragonflies and feeding bees,
Watching them at work brought me so much joy.

This meadow sanctuary would not allow one bad thought
Penetrate its haven of total and utter peace.
A peace so strong I felt it like a winter’s blanket.
Wrapped all around me in the physical and the mental.
Lying on my back and losing myself in the bluest sky.

Hear there are no names to be called and no feeling bad.
I felt strong as anyone could and my fears melted away.
Nature so loved me and I loved her back with all my being.
She wrapped her arms around me and whispered “You are loved.”
Why could I not take these feeling with me when I left?

The farther the walk from the meadow, dread began to enter.
All that was good, kind and peaceful was pushed out by reality.
Why must I have to go back? Back to a place void of love.
Talks with myself to be strong, to mind my manners with conviction.
The sun will come up soon, and my meadow sanctuary waits again.
