As you look across a flawless view,
You start to notice all the beauty around you.
All the tall proud trees reaching up from the ground
And the hunting owl careful not to make a sound.
There is a glassy lake untouched by the world
With a story behind it never to be unfurled.
The big bright moon strung high in the sky,
Watches the world sleep as the many years go by.
What a peaceful moment
What a breathless scene
All the world has stopped around you
Yet it’s only a dream.

&quot;Cats are like tattoos. First you get one, then another, and another, and another, and another. At first you love them, then you hate them and have to get rid of them with lasers.&quot;
