Some people just need a high five, in the face, with a chair.

The delicate sunshine

and brilliant blue sky

blue jays in tree tops

with their piercing eyes

 

Such elegance

and entrancing peace

who'd ever want to leave

such a masterpiece

 

The glistening rain

falls from the canopy

not harsh or quick

but easy and peacefully

 

I softly walk through

this untouched wonderland

nothing seems wrong

my heart feels grand

 

But noise begins to fill my ears

and light shines in my eyes

my wonderland is gone,

and the memory slowly dies.

Nature is pure and wonderful, but there is only a small amount of my wonderland left.
