Fields

Your weary mind stumbles

Your fettered heart trembles

In a sad and stubborn loop

Step

through

the

Portal

The soothing scent softly wafting

Up to the lofty heights of your mind

Calming you, bombing you with quiet

Peace pitter patters into your soul

Leaving footprints on your thoughts

Sink softly in the field of purple essence

Ahh, that's it...

Close your eyes, feel it seeping into your soul like a gentle stream breaching its carefree banks

Now, catch the feels

Hold them, look at them, their shapes and sizes and colors, how they sound

There are no fences here, just wide open space

To stretch your being, to bend light through your newly polished eyes

Under gossamer skies.

    Well-wrought! If only life could always be so, but some fields are for peace and some for battle, until we make our peace and move on from this mortal coil.

    This description is really vivid. It makes me imagine a peaceful, almost dreamy state. Have you ever felt like you were in a place like this? I wonder what inspired you to write about such a serene experience. It makes me wanna just close my eyes and picture it.
