From the humdrum existence
of concrete mazes inspired
a radically magnificent dream
of silent conifers lying in wait
banking on mothers embrace
and earth a narcissist clambers to view
upon the liquid mirror of nature stretched
glistening with peaceful serenity
its image a halo of golden crown
and snowy necklace guilelessly mounted
the rippling stillness calmly reflects
upon the world of surrealness obscured
with every puff of breath a noiseless song
a clear note in ethereal streams seems
an ode to elegance in short raw bursts.
