To dwell in the silence, down under

The calm waters, below the waves

Surrounded by coral reefs, colors

Of the sea, and the inhabitant fish

Basking in the flow of the rippling tides

Where they can quietly swim about

Oh, yes, freedom, freedom from

The reckless and uncaring, the

Human factor, dehumanized beings

When, alas, I realize, as I sum it all up

I would rather drown in beauty

Than live in the ugliness of mankind

Ah, sweetest flora

Fragrant blossom of lilac

Scents the air sublime

Misty mountains, hear the call

From yonder castle keep

Spirits glide along the river

To hill tops, far and steep

Their energy, lights up the sky

In colors, pale and blue

No reflections do they cast

As they wistfully bid adieu

Ethereal beings, swept away

Into the starlight, streaming

Become celestial, in every way

Into the heavens, lay dreaming

Sand in her toes
Wind in her hair
She runs and releases the string
Watching
As the kite takes flight

Soaring with the breeze
She runs along the beach
Holding on tightly
Waiting for that gust
That will carry her away

He raises his voice

Announcing his arrival

With a tuneful song
