Wanderlust

 

Within this blissful delirium,

I find myself wandering slowly

through fields where the grass

is knee-high and soft, the blades

brushing softly against my bare legs,

 

and I search the sides of mountains,

walking well-worn paths where

my footsteps are only shadows

treading upon the distance

between our two hearts.

 

Along the water’s edge,

I find solace in the crisp depth

of a winding stream, drinking

the sweet blue water with my mind

while I muse, your face finding peace

within the rippling current,

 

always smiling, always reassuring,

always showing me the way home.

Beautiful and romantic vision, light metaphysical feelings that dreams are made of,
reading is to find one's self walking distant paths, and I liked the layout presented with an easeful flow, images drift through the mind, the title itself is captivating,

and presents a spin of desirous passion that coincides with the meaning, the heart
feels the imagination connecting with the muse, a yearning to travel to the depths
of eternity, and beyond, there is a lulling aspect to the feeling when read, how you

played in the idea of finding home, feels like the pinicle return to innocence type
wandering in solace, metaphorically created with passionate intent, Nicely done.
Take Care, Mike

This is beautiful. I absolutely love the peaceful loving feeling it evokes. I like the image of "crisp" water. Very nice!
