In this Calm, Pleasant Breeze

I enter the woods outside of my garden
As I make my way to return the favors I pardon
My language in this forest speaks to its soul
and the life it emits is another so whole
This ambient stream of gentle serenity
is so beautiful, despite the calamity
Buried in the dust of those low points
where my mind frees from its grasp on my joints
I wander around to the lake near me
our love is deeply treasured in this beauty
Seeing the smooth waves move to and fro
makes me cry to reflect as an echo
This place is where the greatest thoughts birth
Who knows what we haven't seen in this Earth
I say hi to the fellow joggers nearby
our greetings to each other are enough to get by
Remembering what helps me thrive
calms me down as I try to stay alive
Each tender artist is inspired by someone
there are endless things that happen under the sun
A veil that captures my sight is alluring
it's a dream amidst the hell we are enduring
an escape to these truly pretty lands
is a short trip not far from us in strands
In this calm, pleasant breeze I am in
I see a sight so gorgeous... my precious gem
How lovely are these bright sunlight rays
incandescent reflections of these many days
This art is my favorite out of them all
in this obscure area where I am small
I am in love with these amazing vibes
I hope to come back as it will soon arrive
My farewell to the break I truly needed,
as I think of the lives who are untreated
an intermission to the next slide I take
embracing its all in each morning I wake
As I vow these creations will never die,
may we lay in a soft pillow as we fly...
