Water flows gently
Under snow covered mountains
Amidst crystal trees

A lantern is no longer lit
Near this cell, where I must sit
Darkness plagues my every day
Yet in this narrow space I stay
Golden skies, in this empty place
Soar across, in an endless race
Yet, I cannot see them with my eyes
I see them in my mind and try
To recreate a land once cherished
Where land and trees forever flourished
And flora once did overwhelm
When I was ruler of this realm

Under radiant light, once again, reborn
A whispering breeze across the vibrant sky
She awakens with the gentle call of morn.
Life on Earth heaves a gentle sigh
For she is the mountain that reigns above
And the lands found down below
Delicate beauty, who bestows with love
As she watches her mighty Earth grow

She is
Blended with earth
The soil of the land
Betwixt the trees
And barren branches
Eyes of nature
Watching, adoring

Looking out the window
Staring at the sun
And thinking softly to myself
Am I the only one
Who dreams of faraway places
Untouched by human greed
A land that is unblemished
One we dare not cede
Perhaps I’m just a dreamer
Perhaps I hope for more
Than chemicals and GMO’s
Found in the grocery store
Perhaps we can accomplish
This very daunting task
Of cleaning up the Earth we love
Without an oxygen mask
Yes, looking out the window
There’s no sun left in the sky
And as a tear rolls down my cheek
I turn my face and cry….
