gently lie
There is a land of happiness
where no one ever cries
Smiles and giggles are heard
as children play
Where a warm breeze moves the trees
with a gentle sway
People say hello as they pass one
another each day
Within each heart and soul faith
and hope come to stay
Just where may this beautiful
place be
Where lies our most cherished dreams
that we happily see
It lies deep within ones heart
ones soul
Along side of their deeply felt
wishes and goals
All one has to do is keep open their
hearts and minds
So their hopes and faith they
can easily find

Yet again another one lifting up spirits which are low and feeling blue

Absolutely beautifully written thoughtful poem that sure touches one's heart and the depths of one's soul... You said the truth such a beautiful place is within us that only if we want to we can get to such a beautiful place where no one cries but there are only smiles to share to painful tears...May Lord give everyone strength & will to find their cherished place sooner than soon...
your words are simple
capture the beauty of life
touching one's longing heart
caressing the wandering soul
giving inspiration in every paragraph
making one's membership on allpoetry worth while...
Thanks for being an inspirationally amazing person... take care Minoo

DEAR MINOO
I am deeply touched by your thoughtful words
I am always amazed how as I write to lift myself up so many others are lifted up with me. In knowing this I feel so blessed in ways that God meant for each of us to feel and know.

A beautiful soul searching write.
A beautiful soul seaching write for what you dear pure heart seek. This taken in context of thought and word is written with fine consideration of that special place in the heart, that everyone, holds dear to them. The title truely describes the cherished place that you love, you hope for and have faith that it does exist. So dear pure heart if you get the time please let me know what you think of Mathew chapter 7 verse 7 - 8, in your bible. To do with the last line, of your work, can easily find, see what you think ? But I am not going to tell you. You will only get the anwser if you look. A beautiful write, in all content, thank you for sharing your beautiful thoughts.
I dont know how these applauds work I would have liked to have given you three , but it says I only have two ?
so sorry, cant really work this point system out.
