DREAMSCAPE
WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON
2017
IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIELD
LOOKING ALL AROUND ME
PUZZLED BUT PLEASED
AT THE SILENCE THAT GREETS ME
SUMMER SUN SHINING THROUGH A CLOUDY AFTERNOON
DREAMSCAPE BEFORE ME
PULLING ME FORWARD RESISTANCE IS NIL
WILDFLOWERS NODDING IN THE BREEZE
FRAMED BY A MOUNTAIN SHOULDERS IN SNOW
BUT I MUST CONTINUE ON, THIS I KNOW
HOT SPRING STEAM, MOUNTAIN STREAM
SUN RAYS, WATERWAYS
TREES UP TO THE SKY WHERE EAGLES FLY
MOUNTAINS TOPPED WITH SNOW
GLACIER ICE FLOW
REDOUBTS,LOOKOUTS,TREELINE, OLD MINE
WILDERNESS AND WILD
UNTAMED BUT NOT UNCHALLENGED
TAKE YOUR LIFE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
IF YOU TURN YOUR BACK ON ATTENTION
MORE THAN A FEW TIMES, TOO MANY TO MENTION
I CAME SO CLOSE, I WAS OVER THE LINE
I'M JUST GLAD THAT IT WASN'T MY TIME
I CAN'T STOP MY DESIRES
FOR SITTING BY A FIRE BENEATH THE STARS
IN THE MOUNTAINS ALIVE
QUIET ADRENALINE, WAITING TO GO
PEACEFUL AND SLOW
SO MUCH TO SEE SO MUCH TO KNOW
SOMETIMES ALL YOU CAN DO IS LEARN AS YOU GO
THE SILENCE ROARS SO LOUDLY IN MY HEAD
CALLS ME OUT TO EXPLORE
AND THAT'S A CALL I FIND HARD TO IGNORE
THE SUN IS GOING DOWN AGAIN
THE SKY IS CHRISTMAS RED
NO OTHER PLACE I'D RATHER BE INSTEAD
EVEN WHEN THE MOUNTAINS ARE SHROUDED IN MISTY RAIN
I STILL FEEL THE SAME
BREATHE IT ALL IN AND DO IT AGAIN
FIRE AND ICE,ALPINE LAKE, PICTURES TO TAKE
CANYONS, AVALANCHE, BACK COUNTRY, YOU TAKE YOUR CHANCE
