to find my solitude and peace
i would go to a place in nature
far from busy streets and high-rises
a place where i stand out against nature's background
i would go to a place where the trees breath
where the water sings and the wind carries life
where nature's companions live and roam free
a place that only men can dream of
i would breath with the trees and sing with the water
i would be in nature with no recollection of material things
there would be no trace of time except by the heavens above
there would be no worries of what lies behind or beyond
my stay would last as long as nature would welcome me
or perhaps until the city called me home
nevertheless, part of me, my soul, would forever stay
and the time there could only truly be appreciated once lost.
