 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

Oriental Tranquility


A scene of perfection,peace upon earth
I stood for the longest of time~
It captured my soul as if in a meditational trance
Easing then ever so at that time my troubled mind~
I gazed endlessly out across an ocean of cloud
With misty Vallie's so far below and hard to find~
Feeling so peaceful with all that lay before
So taken by how nature can be so lovingly kind~
Away up there as if growing within the cloud and purest air
Rocky ledges appeared from the cloud covered in snow~
These tallest distorted mountains of highest of rock
As if within the heavenly cloud they lived to grow~
Upon the highest of ledges and rocky edges
Pines,Willows hung as if by nature bashfully kissed~
The heavenly natural design of all there to view
Natures sublime attention to detail amongst the mist~
The high clouds lay in silence as if turbulently painted
By natures most talented artists to be~
Beauty continually unfolding as I stood in awe
Such natural splendor and all totally heavenly free~
As I stood beneath willows that gracefully grew
Looking away out on this vastness of cloud~
Two cranes they flew by so high in the sky
As if ascending from the mist in a shroud~
Nearer to where I stood in misty cool air
Natural natures maintained mosses they grew~
And low hanging largest of leaves wet with the mist
Dripping natural tears and as if diamonds of dew~
The Grey's and the silvers,the whites of it all
Within lightest shades so gentle to eye and to mind~
I stood as I gazed and totally amazed
How beautiful nature it paints one can find~
My moments up there so high and beyond compare
I for life I will never forget~
When I experienced a place with such peace and such grace
Something once known never again in life to regret~      
Such total tranquility has one feel so free
From the pressures of life that exist~
But now every time I go back there in my mind
And once again my soul has been kissed~
