Member Poem

I do walk
in the forest green
upon the soft paths
beneath towering trees

colorful birds
around me sing
and rich full scents
float upon the breeze

and at my side
they do walk
our love is full
and rich our dreams

and life is just
like a perfect dream
exactly how
I would have it be

and I do now
shake my head
with rueful smile
cease my daydream

the world I build
within my mind
of castles white
and damsels fair

like cotton candy
of sugar spun
has no substance
and will never be

for I do walk
in landscape bare
and only dust
is upon the breeze

no castle does
lie upon this path
and no maiden fair
does wait for me

my daydreams but
are a fantasy
building disappointment
that does await me

yet I would still
this world escape
if there was some how
to live with in my dreams
