As a child I'd dream of running away, Nigh unto winter and not too far, From Dad’s and Mom's, where I used to play But which was now bitten hard. A barn in a field was just one dream, An old one where no one ever came. Delight by myself, attainable seemed, Where I could rest and collect my name. Russet woods and graying woods, Fueled fantasy and desire, For simple things must do some good, In corrupt towns, soul is renewed by fire.
I was driving around, photographing scenes in October and saw this leaning, ancient barn, screened by vermilion shrubs and small trees.It brought back childhood memories of exploring strange places.
