Close your eyes

Here I sit and stare,

but now, I close my 

eyes in silent prayer.


Colour and light,

wash over me,

ever so bright.


Whispering softly,

telling me of

every delight.


I wish to walk

in fields of grass,

bare feet,

wind whistling,

brushing against

my skin,

these are my

secret thoughts.


I wish to dangle 

my feet over a bridge,

the burbling brook

flowing between

my toes,

washing the dirt

of this world away,

these are my 

secret dreams.


To close your eyes

is to open your mind,

to the place where

fact and fiction

intertwine.
