Sunshine

Simple sunny solace I seek in valley & forest Hold me steadfast in your long lounging gaze, penetrate my being, illuminate my mind & soul Banish the thought of city and office Oh simple sunny solace Life and death lose meaning in beautiful repose Vibrancy comes naturally Darkness borne of shrubbery and tree and native leaf is welcome The quiet fragrant cool and nostalgic childlike wonder make it so. As I mature I see life in this society has fulfilled its empty promise I shall retire my body to the land Among the meadows in valley and trees in forest And hope my essence in death finds a way to embrace the simple sunny solace.
