I see
Sun rays that blind you,
split the sky wide
Pillowy clouds on baby blue 
sunsets with every color floating behind
saying "look at me"
running springs calming, with the deer and bear coming to drink
Raccoons and squirrels, cute as can be 
Snowy mountain tops, cool white
Tall pines that touch the heavens,
pine cone falling from high above
Breath that fresh clean air
I hear & read
Stories of long ago past with
sword fighting
ax swinging, 
long haired men.
Standing tall and strong on the
helm of a dragon ship
Or sitting proud and confidant atop
a big prancing stallion
Indian warriors fighting proud
for what's theirs
Living clean and simple
taking only what they need 
I dream 
of running in the jungle with
a big beautiful tiger
Looking into its intense eyes
running hands over its awesome coat
feeling its strength and power,
its magnificance
Loving its beauty and freedom
Crying for what it is loosing
Sitting in the forest with a big grizzly bear
I love
 playing with the kids,
laughing, carefree
sweet hugs goodnight
smiling faces come morning
putting words together,
that might make someone smile
or think, give entertainment
insight to something or
someone outside of yourself
these are the things that
make my life real
The reason I continue being me
