I remember a bright summer's day
When the light seemed brighter more alive
and filtered through the branches of a huge Oak
And danced a sacred dance around the daisies beneath.

I heard a chorus of bird at play
watched them jump and fly from twig to twig
and somewhere in all this subtle perfection I,
Became lost in a world of neither regions.

It was here, that from within the edges of the wood
That all of a sudden life sprang like a fresh new breath
and I saw the perfection of every molecule of life
In radiant blaze and glory, filling, Filled.

I saw long past horizons arise and fade
at the speed of but a blinking eye
and all around in song Nature cried her deepest
Till swaying to the winds gentle toss, I awoke.

I stand firmly upon these ancient formless fields
That are filled with the core of man's Soul and blood
Joining us all in some sort of eternal rendition
Of all that life was meant to be.

Faded sighs hush the lullabies
of those that fell for the love of her
Casting upon the circles of formulation
The dreams of destinies child.

It's not oft that the world can so freely give
All that it's essence holds and draws
But once in a blue moon, or a strange summer's day
Life awakens to someone.
