Seeking Solace

I come seeking solace....That strength deep within...The one I've lost touch with....and I can't seem to reach....So I picture this place that I want to visit and somehow it helps me get by.....

I sit by the fountain and look at it's beauty...entranced by the sound of the water and the smell of the flowers....The trees sway back and forth and their melody touches my heart....I sit and I look and enjoy it fully...
My heart needs this place in my imagination...the world outside is so cold and uncaring....my dreams have come to a standstill and I am filled with sorrow....
So I come to seek solace in my garden of peace....I sit on the moist earth and the moon lights the glade...the wind caresses my face and plays with my hair...as if letting me know that someone is there...I know I shouldn't falter and that strength I must find.
So I add to my glade some forest friends coming in to say hello...they come sit beside me and share their warmth and tender thoughts....It makes me feel better and smooths out the pain...My world can be lonely at times.....
I look up to the sky and see all the stars and wonder how many people feel lonely like me....But somehow that thought is interrupted by the look that I get from my friends sitting beside me and smiling their smiles....They remind me that they are here to give solace in my time of need.....So I sit and enjoy my garden of peace.....
