Searching for quiet respite
Following dreams, each detail
Escaping from mankind’s noise
Finding narrative’s hidden trail
Crossing nearby forest bridge
Forgetting work’s last email
Arriving at paradise
Sweeping away narrative’s veil
Discovering prairie ahead
Saddling up, each thought exhales
Envisioning where time stands
Framing narrative’s rhythmic scale
Scanning landscape’s tranquil scene
Treasuring every inhale
Climbing each majestic peak
Flying narrative’s parasail
Grasping reins tightly in hands
Riding forward to prevail
Looking for more tomorrow’s
Writing narrative’s precious tale
Sunset says goodnight
Closing another page
Thoughts filling with peace
Waiting, tomorrow’s stage
Dreams nurture escape
Leaving reality
Subconscious journey
Resting under palm tree
Ocean’s tide rolls in
Viewing each breaking wave
Sleep’s rhythm flows out
Sketching stages to crave
Clouds soon disappear
Clearing under moonlight
Gentle hopes stirring
Taking in spirit’s night
Early dawn arrives
Rousting from slumber’s rest
Sunrise breathes again
Catching stage’s next quest
