The Meadow
I stray away from the winding path
into a beautiful meadow.
A meadow from heaven
Is what it seems to be.
I sit alone in these green grassy plains
And lie back into a sunny patch.
I settle down a bit, close my eyes
And take in these new senses.
All is right in the world.
I can smell the freshly cut grass,
Though nobody else is here to have cut it.
Brightly colored flowers surround me
Envelope me in a scented bed.
I am at peace with myself.
Me, myself, and I.
Everything in life is perfect.
I can hear my quiet breath
The beat of my heart
Nature uttering a story.
A story of a time before buildings and people
A time when the world was stunning.
I am happy
My heart is full
As I let these images fill my head.
When her story is over,
I open my eyes and stare up to the sky.
The bright cloudless never-ending region of infinity.
The sun starts to set
And I watch with sad eyes.
As the sun takes the vision along
Until all is all but forgotten.
這是女兒七年級的作業,好像有點參禪悟道的意思
