WHERE NATURE HOLDS COURT...

WHERE NATURE HOLDS COURT ...

Sometimes I just want
to close up shop..
To run far away,
cup my ears,
Just make it stop..

Run to the stillness
where nature
holds court..
Lay by the
waters of solitude..
To listen to the
breeze  would
be such sport..

Leave sounds
of discontent,
harm, misery
behind..
Only to find
enchantment,
fulfillment,
happiness sublime..

As corrupt as this life
becomes..
My spirit, my soul
unfortunately
 succumbs ..

 I shall breath in the freshest
of morning air..
To be saturated by the warm
calming  sun..
They quietly unshackle
each burden and care..

I must simply bow
my head...
Praying, I leave each
worry and sorrow..
Cleansed, I'm free to face
the uncertainty
of tomorrow ...
