During the night,

I stumble through forest bramble

Searching for something to keep sane.

The oasis,

Revealed by verdant wooded breadth

Acts to aid my exhausted heart.

Chaste cool water,

Thistles pink with floral fragrance;

I cannot imagine sweeter.

Only this place

No longer lives outside my mind.
