California Dreaming

California Dreaming

Light filtering through the dust

A bird gliding effortlessly through the breeze

The crunch of the earth crunching beneath my feet

Echoing throughout the serene surroundings

Rejoicing in the glorious sun

As I peruse nature's art gallery

Flowers whose petals caress the the skin like fine silk

Yet whose colors so vibrant light the eyes

A crystal clear stream rushing down its bed

The cool water refreshing and sparkling

My spirit feels light in such beautiful surroundings

Here, I feel untouched by the woes of the world

With the soft green grass stroking back

The brilliant blue sky captivating my senses

With each intake of life-giving air, I absorb the beauty

A smile lightly touches my lips

The worries seep out to be absorbed by the ever caring Mother Earth

Finally... I'm home
